|-William Valentine Pieratt b. 21 March 1749/50 La Bresse, Vosges, France d.Owingsville, Bath Co, Ky

"William Valentine Pieratt, a native of France, came with General Lafayette to help the American colonists win independence. After the war he lived for a while in Pennsylvania and Maryland, later moving to what was then the wilderness of Kentucky, settling in Montgomery (now Bath) County. Note: Valentine Pyat on 1820 Bath Co., Ky. census

“Most of the family genealogy data is based on 1968 work by Amos Dimmit. He started me into this madness when asking about John Pieratt who moved to KS in 1854. It took 20 years to overcome the three brothers coming to America or the Layfette connection, or the Rueben and William name, but Valentin signed the marriage consent for his son James to Sally Shultz as Valentin Pierrat. He appied to the House of Rep thru Mt. Sterling Rep for a REV pension. Was rejected because he was paid by french at discharge 1 May, 1783 at Wilmington, DE. Joined Lauzun's Legion 13, Jan 1779 as cannonier in Blondeau Company. Check out for history. Valentin from LaBresse, Lorraine, FR. Son of Valentin, Dominique, Jean-Demenge, Demenge-Nicolas. Ckeck for families. All families spelled Pieratt, Peratt in US related. Unknowns are Valentine documentation from 1783 to 1789 and spelling of wife Eace, Aries, etc. I do not believe article is Mt. Sterling newspaper is correct about earlier wife. There was once a bible listing Elizabeth as "loving consort" and names of John, Barbe, and James owned by Viginia Duff of Mt. Sterling.

My Autobiography

Born, 3:30 pm, Feruary 9, 1943 at White Cross Hospital, Columbus, Ohio

Lived on Sullivant Avenue in Columbus, in a brick duplex.

Lived in upstairs apartment on Hawkes Av. in Columbus.

Lived with Aunt Isie on Campbell ve., Columbus, Playmate was Gary Barnhill. (1947)

Lived with Talma and Dempsey Ross on McKittrick Heights in Jackson, Ohio (1948)

Mom and I took over-night train to Boston, Mass.

Lived at 16 June St., East Walpole, Mass. Lived with Salvatore Jennetta and his parents, (1949-1955)

Carl and Pasqualina. Sully had a sister, Mary, who was married to Joseph DePasqualli. Joe and Mary had children my age named Joey and Janet,

Attended school at Bird Elementary. Attended 5th grade at Plimpton School.

Played in woods near Bird and Son Roofing plant. We built a raft and floated on mill pond near Bird & Son.

Played in Bird Park. Remember large stone Bath House next to the swimming pool. Used to swim out to “The Frogs” in the center of the pool.

Used to walk on “he Stepping Stones” which crossed the narrow end of the pool near the woods and Bath House.

Remember Oscar, the mental patient who drowned in the pool one winter. Eash spring, the pool was drained, and the accumulated muck at the bottom was hosed down into the creek which flowed through the swimming pool.

Most years new sand was put in small “beached” at the side of the pool. In the spring, we would cach tad poles there. After the pool was cleaned they would re-fill it using iron pipes which rested on the bottom of the swimming pool. We used to catch fish and frogs in the little creek below th the swimming pool.

We used to build “forts” by piling up pine needles in the woods near the swimming pool. I used to clim high in the tall pine trees which were in the woods near where the little creek entered the swimming pool. There were several crab apple trees near the “Stepping Stones” end of the swimming pool. We used to play baseball in the flat open area just to the right of the main entrance to Bird Park. Further up Washington Street, on of the iron bars of the fense which enclosed the park was bent so that we could squeeze through. Our “short cut” in and out of the Park.

We used to through snowballs at passing cars from inbetween the large arpartment budildings across from the Park. Play nated were Larry Hogan, his little brother Terry Hogan. Thay had sisters named Shela and Helen.

Several houses up the street lived the Baronowski family: Gerald and Eddy, there mother Helen, and there father, who was a carpenter. They had a big old wooden fishibng boat in their back yard which was great to play in.

All of our yards were adjacient to the Bird School grounds.

John Bunyan, who has been named "the Immortal Tinker", became one of the world's most well-known Christian writers. He wrote many books, but his most famous one, "Pilgrim's Progress", has become a world classic.

In 1660 Cromwell's Protectorate came to an end and the monarchy was restored. Believing that the only way to foster unity within the nation was to force religious conformity, the government attempted to arrest the growth of independent churches by forbidding preaching. Bunyan refused to obey this, and was arrested, and sentenced to remain in prison until he agreed to conform.

The County Gaol then stood on the corner of the High Street and Silver Street, and there is a plaque marking the spot. Bunyan was 32 when he first went to prison, and he remained there for the next twelve years. During this time he wrote two major works - his autobiography (Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners) and The Pilgrim's Progress.

In 1672 Charles II issued a Declaration of Religious Indulgence, and Bunyan, along with others, was set free. He was immediately appointed pastor of the Independent Congregation. However, the following year the King withdrew his Declaration and Bunyan was again put into prison. He was released four years later, and on 18 February 1677 published the work for which he is so well known.

Bunyan lived for another ten years, during which he wrote another forty books! He died in August 1688, and is buried in City Road, London. per

John Bunyan was born in 1628. In 1644 he was caught up in the Civil War and drafted into the Parliamentary army. Four years later he entered a period of intense spiritual struggle (chronicled in Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners), after which he emerged a new man. He joined a Nonconformist church and began to preach. Bunyan spent many years in prison because of his faith and during this time began writing The Pilgrim's Progress. The first part was published in 1678 and the second part, together with the whole work, was published in 1684. Bunyan died in 1688.

They call it John Bunyan's Bedford and perhaps it's hardly surprising. For a lowly seventeenth century tinker to have risen to become one of the most celebrated writers in the English language was a feat indeed. The Pilgrim's Progress has been translated into into 200 different languages and was written in Bedford County Gaol where Bunyan languished for twelve years. Don't miss Bunyan's Meeting House and Museum to view many of his personal possessions and other relics.

Philosopher's Corner Presents: John Bunyan

English cleric and author. Born Nov 28, 1628 at Elstow, Bedfordshire, England. Died at London, Aug 31, 1688. Bunyan was a fervent English Puritan and a supreme master of English prose. Educated briefly in the local school, Bunyan early became a tinker like his father. During the English Civil War, he served (1646) in the parliamentary army. As a member of a Baptist congregation in Bedford after 1653, Bunyan clashed with his fellow nonconformists, the Quakers. This experience led to two religious pamphlets published in 1656 and 1657 in defense of his faith and launched him on a new career as an itinerant

preacher.

Arrested in 1660 for preaching without a license, Bunyan spent most of the next 12 years in jail. While there he produced 10 books, the most important of which was his powerful spiritual autobiography, Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (1666). In this he chronicles his many battles with Satan and the "the merciful working of God" leading to his salvation and the acceptance of his divine call to preach.

Following his release from prison in 1672 and his temporary reimprisonment for non- conformity, Bunyan completed his most famous work, Pilgrim's Progress an allegory of Christian salvation. It was published in two parts, in 1678 and 1684. Bunyan's other works -- rich in biblical echoes and notable in their vigorous, colloquial, and highly personal style -- include The Life and Death of Mr. Badman (1680), which presents a dialogue between Mr. Wisemans and Mr. Attentive, the biography of an unregenerate rogue, The Holy War (1682) in which the City of Mansoul (symbolizing the human soul) is besieged by Diabolus

and delivered by Emmanuel.

Some Quotes from Bunyan:

"He that is down need fear no fall"

"There was a man though some did call him mad, the more he cast away, the more he had."

"If we have not quiet in our minds, outward comfort will do no more for us than a golden slipper on a gouty foot."

Hi John,I'm a direct decendent of John Bunyan on my fathers side of the family. My father fathers name was Jacob Bunyan, who was married to a Sarah Rymal and although lived in East London they lived in Aylesbury for a time during the 2nd World War. Sarah and Jacob had five sons (one died during the war the other as a child ! ) Jacob left Sarah whose surnam was Frogley and after that nothing is known about him. per Lillian at The Bunyan Surname Message Board at

BIOGRAPHY OF JOHN BUNYAN CHILDHOOD

In 1628 John Bunyan was born in the parish of Elstow, approximately two kilometres to the south of Bedford, where he was baptised on 30 November 1628. He was the son of a tinker. Although the family was poor, they owned a cottage nearby, in the hamlet of Harrowden. Bunyan described his childhood as normal and happy, and he learned to read and write a little. As a child he travelled the district helping his father and learning the trade.

CIVIL WAR 1642-45

In 1644, when Bunyan was 16, his mother died and his father remarried within a year. In November 1644 Bunyan was mustered (conscripted) in a county levy of the Parliamentary army. He seems to have spent most of his military service in garrison duty at Newport Pagnell. He later spoke of a narrow escape: "When I was a soldier, I, with others, was drawn out to go to such a place to besiege it; but when I was just ready to go, one of the company desired to go in my place; and coming to the siege, as he stood sentinel, he was shot in the head with a musket bullet, and died."

FIRST MARRIAGE AND SPIRITUAL CRISIS

Returning to Elstow in 1647 Bunyan resumed his work as a tinker, and the Museum has his anvil and metal violin from this period. Two years later he married a local girl who bore him four children, the first of whom, called Mary, was born blind. The arrival of Mary in 1650 made Bunyan reflect seriously on his life for the first time. He questioned the value of his favourite pastimes such as bell-ringing in Elstow Church, dancing and playing tip-cat, an early form of rounders. In Grace Abounding published in 1666, Bunyan describes this period of spiritual crisis admitting that, "Even as a child I had few equals in cursing, swearing, lying and blaspheming the Holy name of God".

JOINS INDEPENDENT CHURCH IN BEDFORD

The Civil War was over but it had made its mark throughout the country. Some people wanted a simpler form of worship and Independent congregations (from the Church of England) began to emerge. John Bunyan found one such congregation in 1653 at St John's Church, south of the river, where he became friends with their pastor John Gifford.

STARTS PREACHING

By 1655 Bunyan and his family were living in St Cuthbert's Street in Bedford and it was at this time that Bunyan discovered he was a gifted preacher, and by 1659 he was recognised beyond the county border as a preacher. In 1656 he became involved in disputes with local Quakers under Edward Burrough and these led to his first book, Some Gospel Truths Opened.

SECOND MARRIAGE

In 1658 his first wife died and the following year he married his second wife, Elizabeth, with whom he had two children. In this year he also published his most ambitious theological work, The Doctrine of the Law and Grace Unfolded.

ARRESTED FOR PREACHING

In 1660 Cromwell's Protectorate came to an end and the monarchy was restored. In the belief that national unity could only be achieved by religious uniformity, the state attempted to restrain the developing Independent congregations by forbidding preaching. Bunyan was arrested in the hamlet of Samsell just after he had begun a meeting. He was held at nearby Harlington Manor overnight and appeared before the local justices there when he was sentenced to three months in prison.

PRISON

Since Bunyan refused to give an assurance not to preach he remained in the County Gaol for 12 years from 1661 to 1672. The County Gaol was demolished in 1801, but one of its prison doors was saved and is on display within the Museum. In vain, his wife Elizabeth tried to get his case reopened by pleading with Sir Matthew Hale, the Lord Chief Justice of England, when he stayed in Bedford. Bunyan was allowed several privileges as a prisoner, since he was not a common criminal. The prison was only five minutes from his home so food was brought into his cell, often by his blind daughter Mary, and a stoneware jug believed to have been used for this purpose can be seen in the Museum. He also received daily visits from friends and had occasional excursions from prison, keeping him in close contact with members of the congregation. He is reputed to have made a wooden flute out of a stool leg in his prison cell: this is on display at the Museum. During imprisonment he supported his family by making "long tagged bootlaces" which they could sell.

WRITING THE PILGRIM'S PROGRESS

This period in prison was used for writing. In 1663 came Christian Behaviour followed in 1665 by The Holy City and in 1666 by Grace Abounding, his spiritual autobiography. It is thought that the impetus for the latter might have been the knowledge of the 40 people who died of the plague on the north side of the river where John Bunyan was imprisoned. This is mentioned in St Paul's Parish Register. It was during the years 1667-72 that Bunyan probably wrote much of the first part of The Pilgrim's Progress.

PASTOR OF BEDFORD CHURCH

In 1672 King Charles II issued the Declaration of Religious Indulgence and Bunyan, like other church offenders, was released from prison. He was immediately appointed pastor of the Independent congregation in Bedford, which later bought a barn and orchard in Mill Street as their place of meeting. In 1673 the King was forced to withdraw his Declaration, and early in 1677 Bunyan returned to prison.

"BISHOP BUNYAN"

Apart from this second (and some people think there was a third) brief spell in prison Bunyan spent his time from 1672 onwards preaching, directing the affairs of the Church and visiting outlying congregations and sister churches in Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Surrey and in London. It is now that he earned the nickname "Bishop Bunyan".

MORE BOOKS

On 18 February 1678 Bunyan published the first part of The Pilgrim's Progress. During the last ten years of his life he wrote a further 40 books including The Life and Death of Mr Badman (1680), The Holy War (1682) and The Pilgrim's Progress - Second Part (1685).

BUNYAN'S WILL

In 1685 Bunyan made a deed of gift of his property to his wife, probably to avoid confiscation during the period of renewed persecution. This will was found during the later demolition of the Bunyan's Bedford home and is displayed in the Museum.

DEATH

On 31 August 1688 John Bunyan died in London. He had been on a mission of mercy to Reading, to effect reconciliation between a young neighbour of his and the father with whom he had quarrelled. The mission successfully accomplished, Bunyan continued his journey on horseback to London. On the way he was overtaken by a great storm of wind and rain, and he arrived at the house of his friend, John Strudwick on Snow Hill, drenched to the skin and feeling unwell. In spite of his evident weakness and sickness, he insisted on fulfilling an engagement to preach on the following Sunday, at the Meeting House of one John Gammons in Petticoat Lane. He then returned to John Strudwick's house, where he grew weaker, and a few days later died. Bunyan was buried in the Strudwick family vault in the burial ground of Bunhill Fields, City Road, London. Bunhill Fields is noted as the resting place of many prominent Dissenters.

Date: Wed, 6 Sep 2000 12:34:06 -0400From: Michael King To: BEDFORD-L@Subject: BUNYAN Query

Hi,I've found the elusive Sarah BUNYAN.It's my fault; her marriage to Samuel VASS (my 4G-grandfather), was in the Great Brickhill PR. My only excuse (a poor one after having read all the stories related to misspelled names in registers and censuses) was that Samuel VASS was wrongly indexed as "VOSS" and I had always assumed (never, never assume!) that Sarah's marriage would appear somewhere in Beds, so that the BUNNIONs in GB were not worth following up - thus missing the "BUNNION (BUNYAN)" in the GB register index for marriages.

Melancthon Bentley was the youngest Child of Caleb Bentley and his second wife, Mary Hewitt. Melancthon married twice. First on 1 March 1828 to Eliza Smith by whom he had four children; Caroline Marie, Caroline, Eunice, and Amanda. Melancthon married secondly on 1 March 1844 to Eliza Reynolds by whom there were four additional children; Caleb, David, Minnie, and William. Melancthon resided on the farm cleared from the wilderness by his father, Caleb, along the Little Hoosick River, near what is now the town of Berlin NY. An excellent source of information on the descendants (as well as the ancestry) of Melancthon Bentley is Cameron Stewart's benchmark opus, "GenealogicalClassification by Family Group Coding for Descent from Common Ancestors", volume II.

nother good source is Eleanor Trismen's manuscript! The section on Caleb (George,William II, William I) is 130 pages. By the way Bob & Ellie still live on the farm.

[He] settled opposite the North Common, where he built the house now standing [1892], and was Inkeeper and trader. Before 1754 he began building the mansion at the South Common, which he sold unfinished that year to his brother-in-law, Josiah Wolcott. He appears to have been unsettled in his business relations, removed often, was prominent in public affairs, justice of peace, collector under the excise law, and many years licensed retailer of liquors. He lived in Dudley from 1766 to 1770 and removed thence to the north part of Oxford, now Auburn [1892], and was 1785-1787 in Worcester, where he kept a tavern, and later at Putney, Vt. where he was a farmer. He spent his later days in Oxford. On 13 June, 1795, as he was crossing from the centre tavern to his residence on the opposite corner he was taken suddenly ill, fell in the street and soon died. Joseph Hurd was administrator of his estate.
