It isn't that I think they were related I just wondered if it helped anyone... Did anyone follow up on the cook whose surname was PIGGOTT or some variation? I wonder if anyone even made a copy of my e-mail to y'all. How do I get to the archives? Dolly in VA [Diane Gibbs Stratton Gambrell] My Alice Piggott was married to John Stratton; they were in MASS. mid 1600s Her family was in Bedfordshire. I am getting ready to move to SC and will not find my genealogy notes for some time. Thought I inquire now for a later excursion into the line.
