This park looks so beautiful..............does anyone know of a Benjamin Piatt m. to Isabelle ? they had twin daughter Luzetta and Sarah Piatt? They lived I believe in Monroe county. Thank you Maggie

For Maggie, I knew that I had posted information about Benjamin Piatt and wife Isabel of Monroe Co OH some time ago. This couple had twin daughters Sarah and _Rosetta_ who were apparently adopted by Calvin Flannigan. I decided to search the archives of the list at http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl?list=PIATT and hit the jackpot on the first try. Here's what was posted back in 1999 and there could have been more posted later. Try a a search in 2000 and 2001 to see if more is there. I believe information might be posted concerning an early death of Benjamin. If you can't find it, let me know. Note: If the link above doesn't work try accessing the archives from the PIATT-L subscription page at: http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/p/piatt.html ***** Precious little information is known about Isabell PALMER and Benjamin PIATT. All I have is: 7 April 1874, Isabel PALMER and Benjamin PIATT were married by Rev Isaac Williams, Monroe Co OH Marriage Book 2, page 18. 2 Jan 1879, Benjamin F PIATT died, age 24 years (the same Benjamin?) no death record cited 5 Jan 1884, John McVAY and Isabel PIATT were married by J R Camden JP, Monroe Co OH Marriage Book 3, page 144 (application by Amos Mobberly) (Isabel Palmer Piatt?) 1880 census, Monroe Co OH, Graysville Washington Twp, 180/183 Calvin Flanigan 50 OH OH OH Nancy, wife 48 OH OH OH Ebenezer Hall 14 OH OH OH nephew Rosetta PIATT 5 OH OH OH adopted daughter Sarah E PIATT 5 OH OH OH adopted daughter In 1900 Calvin and Nancy Flanigan were living alone. Other marriage records which might pertain: 7 Oct 1892 James Knowlton and Rosetta Piatt, application by D W Parks, marriage by R S Varper, Monroe Co OH Mg Bk 4:162 14 Nov 1894 Alexander Strickling and Sarah E Piatt, by O O Okey, JP, Monroe Co OH Mg Bk 4:312 (application by B F Strickling) Source: Piatt Family Newsletter, Vol 9. 1860 Washington Twp, Monroe Co OH 899/899 Benjamin Piatt 31 M OH Phebe 27 F OH Benjamin 7 M OH (b c 1853) Robert 3 M OH Anne E 6/12 F OH Benjamin WATSON 82 M PA Source: PFN Vol 2 IF the seven year old Benjamin in this family is the same as the one who died at age 24 in 1879 (numbers are close) AND the same one who married Isabell PALMER, then we have the probable link to Rene. More work is needed for confirmation, though. Laverne Ingram Piatt -- Laverne Ingram Piatt Ontario, OH
