I am hoping to make contact with any descendants of a Peter Pyle who died in DeSoto Parish, LA in 1879, that were included in an Oil & Gas Lease which was dated 1951 on land located in DeSoto Parish, LA, previously owned by him. Children and Grandchildren of my GGGrandmother Sarah Ann (Pyle) White, married to Thomas White in 1849-Floyd Co., GA and moved to Van Zandt Co., TX, in 1870 and died there 1873-1875, were contacted and received a small amount of money for agreeing to that Oil and Gas Lease. We have tried to find our Sarah Ann's connection to Peter & Miriam (Davis) Pyle, but so far have found nothing. Their daughter Sarah Ann born about the same time our Grandmother was, is reported to have married a John W Westbrook by her family members. I am wondering if any of her children or Peter's other children were included in that Oil and Gas Lease?? Does anyone know?? Thanks for any help you can give us on this.
