Surnames: Piatt, Nease Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Z.2ACBAEB/229 Message Board Post: Looking for any information on John Hiram Piatt, married to Elizabeth ? They had at least one daughter named Laura Myrtle Piatt who was married to Charles Wesley Nease. They had 3 children but Laura died suddenly in 1893- family lore has it she was struck by lightning..... I'd like to trace the line further back .... I am assuming since supposedly Laura died young in 1893 - she would have been in her early 20's which would make John Hiram Piatt's birthday somewhere between 1820-50ish range... Any information would be greatly appreciated
