About reads (after I edited and pulled the Gedcom stuff):
A 3rd cousin, Warren Pratt, also a genealogist, had done extensive research on Henry Pratt 1809-1886 in search of his father.
Elizabeth Pratt was Henry's mother.
She had Henry out of wedlock.
Based on Warren Pratt's DNA testing, we have proof that Henry Pratt's real father was Henry Witt, Born 25 Aug 1788 in Bedford County, Virginia and died 12 Jun 1809, the very same month, day and year that Henry Pratt was born.
Henry Witt was 20 years old at his time of death.
Did Elizabeth's father James Pratt (often confused as Elizabeth's husband) shoot Henry Witt?
One may wonder.
Also, Henry Pratt was married twice, Celia Hampton and Sarah "Sally" Gibson.
Celia gave birth to 10 children and Sarah gave birth to 4 children.

Henry Pratt was married twice:
# Celia Hampton and
# Sarah "Sally" Gibson.
Celia gave birth to 10 children and Sarah gave birth to 4 children.

Elizabeth Witt says:
Aboutedit | history
I have all proof, including copies of Henry's Bible and DNA of him being the illegitimate son of Henry Witt.

Elizabeth had Henry, Jr. Henry Pratt (Witt) out of wedlock and gave her new born son his father's name and gave him her maiden names as his last name.

Henry's father, Henry Witt, Sr., was killed by lightening on the very same day Henry, Jr was born.

Henry Witt, Sr. brother, John Witt was also struck by lightening and died 5 days later.
