Hello,
I am researching a Piatt/Pyatt/Pyeatt family and related lines. I was hoping that someone could check their Franklin Co sources and add to the following info. I would especially like to verify that Jacob Piatt died in Franklin County in 1755 and would like to get a copy of his will or an abstract. Any information is welcome and appreciated.
