Notes:

From: "Pioneer Families of Missouri", by Bryan and Rose, 1876

Starts on p. 179 - 180
"PITMAN -- The grandfather of the Pitman families of St. Charles and Montgomery counties came to America with the Penn colony in 1681; but he afterward settled in Campbell county, Va. His grandchildren were --
William, Thomas, John, and two daughters, Mrs. Hall and Mrs. Gill, whose first names we could not obtain. William was one of the early pioneers of Kentucky, on the Daniel Boone order. He lived and died in that State. Thomas married a Miss Berry, of Warren county, Ky., and they had five sons and several daughters. One of the daughters, named Rachel, married Christopher Hutchings, who settled in St. Charles county in 1811. They had -- Albert G., Beverly T., Christopher, Melvina, and Nancy. Richard B., a son of Thomas PITMAN, married Lucinda Hutchings, and settled in St. Charles county in 1811. They died and left two sons, James M. and Andrew J. The former moved to Quincy, Ills. John PITMAN, a brother of Thomas, settled in St. Charles county in 1810. He married Dorothy Robinson, of Virginia, by whom he had three sons and one daughter -- Christopher I., Irvine S., Peyton R., and Mary I. His first wife dying, he was married the second time to the widow Burns-Price, of Virginia, whose maiden name was Magdelene Irvine. She bore him one son, David K., and died in 1830. Mr. PITMAN died in 1839, in his eighty-sixth year. Christopher, the eldest son of John PITMAN, died in infancy. Irvine S., was married first to Nancy Talbott, daughter of Col. Hale Talbott, whose wife's maiden name was Jane Irvine. After her death he married Rachel Sweet. Mr. Pitman was a tanner by trade, and built a tanyard on Massey's creek, in (now) Warren county. In 1821 Gov. McNair commissioned him Colonel of the 15th regiment of Missouri State militia. He was also the first Sheriff of Montgomery county, and served as County Judge of that county for several terms. Mr. Pitman was a good violinist, and very fond of dancing. Mary I Pitman married Thomas D. Stephenson of Kentucky. David K., now living in St. Charles county, was married first to Caroline L. Hickman, of Clark county, KY., who was a daughter of Richard Hickman and Lydia Callaway. His second wife was Eliza H. Baker. Mr. Pitman has for many years been a leading member of the Southern Methodist Church, and has filled many prominent and responsible positions to the entire satisfaction of his brethren. He has had much to do with the educational institutions of that Church, and his son, Prof. R. H. Pitman, Principal of the Methodist Female College at Fayette, Mo., is well known all over the State as an experienced and successful educator."
