Charles F and Mary McGalliard Pyatt
Charles F Pyatt was born on July 26, 1844 to John Davis Pyatt and Caroline Finger and died on March 26, 1887. Charles is buried in the Nebo Cemetery, McDowell County, North Carolina.
He married (some say in 1856; when he was only 12) to Mary McGalliard. Mary was born c1847 in North Carolina. Charles' brother, Samuel Davis Pyatt, married Eliza J McGilliard. Where Mary and Eliza sisters? I do not find Mary buried beside Charlie in Nebo Cemetery. However, there is a Mary Pyatt born February 7, 1846 who died October 22, 1923 who is buried near Eliza McGalliard Pyatt. My guess is that this is Mary McGalliard Pyatt. Many McGalliard family members are buried in Nebo cemetery, McDowell County, North Carolina.
Charles and Mary had the following known children:
- Franklin Pyatt b: 7 Jan 1870 NC (probably McDowell Co) d: 30 May 1897 (buried Nebo Cemetery, McDowell Co, NC)
- John Pyatt b: c1872 NC (probably McDowell Co)
- Thomas Pyatt b: c1873 NC (probably McDowell Co)
- Jane Pyatt b: c1875 NC (probably McDowell Co)
- William Pyatt b: 22 Jul 1879 NC (probably McDowell Co) d: 22 Oct 1899 (Nebo Cemetery, McDowell Co, NC)
