The 1910 Washington County, Arkansas census lists Mary as having had seven children, five of which were still living.

"Mary Carnahan was the first born white child of Washington County. Mary Ann Carnahan was born May 31, 1828." - The Pyeatts and the Carnahans of Old Cane Hill, by Reverand Alfred E. Carnahan, page 22.

"From her Obituary (newspaper clipping):
"Mrs. Mary Ann Crawford was born at Cane Hill May 31, 1828, and died at the home of her son at Cane Hill Sept. 4, 1921, aged 93 years, 4 months and one day. This long life was spent in the community in which she was born. Her parents, Samuel and Marcy C. Pyeatt Carnahan, came to Arkansas from the old Cherokee Nation near Huntsville, Ala., in 1811, and settled near Little Rock. In 1827 the family moved from the latter place to Cane Hill in Washington County, where she was born on the date given, and was the first child born of white parentage in northwest Arkansas. She retained all her faculties to the close of life and was a constant reader of the church papers and other good literature. In childhood she united with the Cumberland Presbyterian Church and remained in its communion. In 1856 she was married to Mr. Finis E. Crawford who departed this life in 1883. She is survived by two sons, Cyrus C. Crawford of Cane Hill; Ewing of Wister, Okla.; two daughters, Mrs. Lizzie Kelleam and Mrs. Anie Moore of Cane Hill, and one brother, Rev. Peter Carnahan of Bentonville, now in this 83rd year." - The Pyeatts and the Carnahans of Old Cane Hill, by Reverand Alfred E. Carnahan, page 22.


Annie Crawford

She is said to have married W.S. MOORE.


Capt. John (Piatt)

John Piatt, the eldest son, whom we shall designate as John the II, was
evidently born on the Island of St. Thomas, the date of his birth being
1739. In 1763, three years after the death of his father, he was married to
Miss Jane Williamson, daughter of William and Jane Van Nest Williamson, who
was born in 1745; and at Trenton, New Jersey he founded his home. He served
as High Sheriff of Middlesex county, which, in 1838, was sub-divided into
four counties; and at the close of the Revolution, in which he played his
part as "minute man" in the New Jersey militia, he removed with his family
to Milton, on the Susquehanna river, in Northumberland county, Pennsylvania;
and later, to White Deer Valley, where he died in 1820, at the age of eighty-
one years.

He fell heir to the old Dutch Bible which the family brought from Holland to
America, and which bears the date 1710; and when his daughter, Frances, the
wife of William McKinney, senior, was leaving Pennsylvania for her new home
in Ritchie county, he came out with this old Bible, and said, "Here,
Frances, take this with you, as you are the only one that can read it."
Mrs. McKinney accepted the proffered treasure, and it is now in the
possession of the family of her late grand-daughter, Mrs. Drusilla Wanless.

Minnie Kendall Lowther, and published in 1910.)
