Notes

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 four, Thomas was brought up by his great-uncle Samuel Pitt , a Mason and his wife Fanny. Samuel being the brother of Thomas' grandfather John Pitt.
