Johann Fite (Viet)
My gr gr gr grandmother was Laura Fite, daughter of Amos Fite(1802-?) and Sarah Earnhart.Amos is the son of Henry Fite and Barbara Fraley.Henry is the son of Johann Pieter Viet according to my records.Johann Pieter came to America in 1748 and there is no record of him until he buys land in North Carolina in 1761.
All was well until I stumbled across another Johann. Here I found an Johann that came to America with two brothers. This Johann marries a Catherine.My Johann Pieter marries Margarite Eve.What is strange is that they both have children by almost the same names:Peter, Catherine, Conrad, Mary, Christina, John, Leonard, Jacob, and Gilbert are the children of Johann and Catherine.Peter, Catherine, Conrad, Mary, Jacob, Rosana, Elizabeth, Henry, Barbara, and Eve are the children of Johann Pieter and Margarite.Now it gets really strange. One states that Johann and Catherine's son, Peter, had eight children:Jacob, Elias, Henry, Christina, Rachel, Mary, Catherine, and Peter.Read carefully.Johann Pieter and Margarite's son, Peter, had seven children: Jacob, Elias, Henry, Christina, Rachel, Mary, and Peter.What do you make of this?Can anyone help me unravel the puzzle of Peter's father?Jan
