Carolyn, after much pondering I don't think my Benjamin Hyatt was related to
the other Hyatts in Ripley Co., but one never knows.
Benjamin Hyatt was born in NY about 1809. The family moved to Ohio,
possibly spent some time in KY first. Benjamin married Caroline Jane
Wellman about 1828 when she was 18 years of age, place and date unknown. In
1840 they were living in Butler Co., OH. Also in Butler Co. was an Ann
Hyatt, possibly Benjamin's mother. The 1850 and 1860 Butler Co., OH census
shows Ann and her daughter (?) Phoebe Cooper were both born in NY. Census
results for Ann and Benjamin are listed below:

HYATT, Mrs. Ann, d. 6 May 1866, age 80 yrs.
Bell, d. 7 May 1865, age 20 yrs. (This must be Isabell Cooper)
It is thought that Caroline Jane Wellman Hyatt was 1/2 Cherokee. This is
what my father told my brothers and me and what at least one cousin has also
been told, even some words from the cherokee language were taught to
Caroline's offspring. If this is correct it blows my theory about Nancy
Levi/Levy marrying James Wellman , then Allen Burton, because Nancy was
probably the daughter of Isaac Levi, an immigrant from Hungary.
Benjamin and Caroline's first born was named Levi Perry Hyatt, something for
my theory's "YES" column.

Dear Gwen; This is getting interesting.....my Cowan family is inter-twined
with the Hyatt family also. Some of my surnames that crop up with the
Hyatt's are Cowan, Benifield, Griffith, Buchanan, Young, Redican, Wooley,
McFatridge, Hughes, Copeland, Coleman, & others. I have several gals whom I
have no
spouses for as of yet. I have about 30 Hyatts in my files & did not list
all the spouse names. So far, I do not have a Benjamin or Allen Burton in my
records but I could have missed some children. I need any dates you have for
them.
Thanks for your response..... Carolyn Cowan Oberle casu01(a)aol.com
