I can't answer your query, but I find it interesting as there is a couple of Piatt "castles" located in Ohio that are open for tours. Perhaps there is a connection there ? I think there located north of Columbus somewhere and I believe Piatt descendants still own them ?

He reportedly wrote about his childhood days of fishing and swimming near the Beers gristmill on the Whetstone/Olentangy (owned by my ancestors). Does anyone know where to find his poems? I'd also like to know the poet's father's name. > > > ==== OHFRANKL Mailing List ==== > Franklin County, Ohio OHGenWeb > http://www.rootsweb.com/~ohfrankl/ > > >
