Their marriage license was for 'Pleasant M Pyatt of Harmony Twp., Washington Co., Mo. under 21' and 'Mary Tinker of Harmony Twp., Washington Co., Mo. under 18'. The parents gave their consent to this marriage in writing (22 September 1894 license). They married on 23 September 1894 by John W Flowers, JP, at Harrison Tinker's, in Washington County.
Pleasant and Mary had the following known children:
I have to wonder if the following obituary is for their son, John. The father's initials were illegible (mostly) and the mother looked like 'Mary Timber', but, could be 'Mary Tinker'. The obituary was as follows:

I did not find this child listed on the information on the Pyatt family in the Boss Cemetery information abstracted on the Miscellaneous Page.
By the 1900 census, Pleasant was in Osage Township, Crawford County, Missouri:
I don't have this family on the 1910 or 1920 census.
It looks to me like this death certificate may be for a child of Cora B Pyatt who was the daughter of Pleasant and Mary:
