    • John Pitt (Snr) and Eliza had three children together. The eldest two - John; born in 1846 and Elizabeth; born in 1848 were both born before the couple married, and, so being illegitimate the children had the surname Terrett, which was Eliza's maiden name, however they both also had the middle name of Pitt.

      After John and Eliza married, the name Terrett was dropped, and the children were known from then on as John and Elizabeth Pitt. Their brother Thomas was always known as Thomas Pitt, he being born in 1850 after his parents marriage.

      Orphaned by the age of six, Elizabeth was presumably brought up together with her two brothers John and Thomas by her great-uncle Samuel Pitt, a Mason and his wife Fanny. Samuel being the brother of Elizabeth's grandfather John Pitt. However by the age of thirteen according to the 1861 census she was lodging with the Snell family of Thrupp, Stroud and attending school. By the time of the 1871 census Elizabeth was living at 18 Cunningham Place, Marylebone, London, and working there as a housemaid to Mary Davies and her daughter Sarah.
