UNCONFIRMED AS THE FATHER OF PRUDENCE & HANNAH

Although Hannah had a daughter Prudence and a son John Platt HUYCK

John Platt, of Hallowell Tp., Prince Edward Co., who in 1798 was rated as one of the wealthiest citizens, and assessed for 2s. 6d. in taxes,] and in 1808 appears as the owner of 260 acres of land, of which 40 were under cultivation. While on chronological grounds he may perhaps have been a Loyalist, his circumstances do not closely fit the men of this name who have been found in Loyalist sources. He is, however, possibly the John Platt mentioned in the following story:

The current of events on the Bay Circuit was a little stirred by the advent once more, on a short visit, of its first evangelist, William Losee. Mr Playter's account of it is the following: "He came to dispose of his property in Kingston. He was now a feeble old man .... He preached in the chapel and also in some places on the Bay of Quinte.... He was accustomed to horse-back riding from his youth; and was once noted as a racer. When he first came to Adolphustown [now in Lennox and Addington County], in 1790, some of his old acquaintances would not go to hear him, not believing in his professions of religion. Among the rest was John Platt, whose sister, however, went to Losee's meetings. As she was going one day, the brother said, 'Do you ask Bill if he keeps the little black horse for racing yet.' After meeting, the young women trembling, gave the message to the preacher. He solemnly replied, 'Tell john, if he does not look out, he will ride the little black horse to hell!' that is, racing would be his destruction."

In February of 1836 "John Platt and six others, of the Township of Ameliasburgh (Prince Edward)" petitioned the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada that "Mr. Wilmot's survey of said township, may not be confirmed," but resolution of the matter is not apparent. By this late date, the John Platt referred to may well have been a younger man than our subject.
