Solomon Piatt and Nancy Boze
Soloman Piatt was born in 1824 in Trotwood, Montgomery Co, Ohio, to John and Rebecca ? Piatt and died July 24, 1864 at the US Army Hospital in Chattanooga, Tennessee. He is buried in the National Cemetery in Chattanooga, Sec F Div 1 Grave 68. On June 7, 1845, he married Nancy Boze in Dayton, Montgomery Co, Ohio.
Solomon and Nancy had 6 children:
- Mary Ellen Piatt
- Sarah Ann Piatt
- David L Piatt
- Isaac Ivan Piatt
- Samuel Elias Piatt
- Stephen Wesley Piatt
Solomon's parents, John and Rebecca, were in the Montgomery Co OH census for 1820. Little further is known of this couple. A county history mentioning some of their sons states that the couple would have had ties to Rockingham and/or Rockbridge Co VA. However, research there and in Augusta Co VA has revealed little more and nothing as yet to establish
the link to New Jersey and to Rene Piatt, a link which is strongly suspected.
Solomon was 38 years old when he mustered into the Civil War on October 7, 1861, in an Ohio Regiment.
