Notes for Joan Jean Paul
Jean Paul Pyeatt evidently deserted her husband and Jacob Piatt Sr married second Jane Young on July 2, 1734, in Christ Church, Philadelphia, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania.
In 1736 at Derry Church, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Jacob petitioned the Donegal Presbytery for reinstatement. The petition mentions his "clandestine" marriage in 1734 and also indicates that his first wife deserted him rather than died. This would explain why in 1784 (after son Jacob 1725-1784 died) a deed was signed by Jean Pyeatt. This indicates that she was still living and involved in Pyeatt family affairs to some extent. Presbytery records are at the Presbyterian Historical Society south of Independence Hall in Philadelphia.
