This family was enumerated 12 June 1880 in Dist 211 Cane Hill on pg 622; this enumerator only listed non-typical relationships - all others were blank 'other'. Living nearby was the H C and Eliza Pyeatt family; C F Pyeatt; Addie Pyeatt; and Martha J Pyeatt.
They appeared on the 1910 census of Dutch Mills, Washington County, Arkansas, as follows:
Pyeatt, George F age 54 born AR / wm / married1 31 yrs / father/mother born TN
Pyeatt, Lorena (wife) age 47 born AR / wf / married 1 31 yrs / 3 children/2 living / father/mother born AR
This family was enumerated #16 pg 96B ED #130 image 2/13. I wonder which of their children had died?
