Melinda, to be honest, I don't know if that person is related to me or not. My knowledge only goes just so far and that is because Nancy McClellan keeps me informed. You might want to send her that information and she might know who they are. Thanks so much for letting me know. I appreciate it. fay

They are listed with their mother on the 1860 Census for Wyoming, Kent, Michigan. Their father, Hanover Pitts was deceased. Jane Pitts is listed on the 1870 Census for Wyoming, Kent, Michigan as a servant girl in the home of Margret Grant. Whom, where, and when did Jane Pitts marry? She once lived in Kentucky. She was a widow in 1924 when she moved to Oklahoma to live with her daughter (unknown). Jane Pitts is the missing link in this family. I need to find her married name to connect this family together.

I have more: Charles was called Charley when younger..( Chas V. L when older) was born in Utica, NY..father was Hiram who was a tailor. Mother was Adeline.. there were oodles of siblings. By 1870, Hiram moved the family to Kingston NY. The older brother Henry and Charles came.. no mention of mom or sibs. Charles married Isabella and lived in Kingston...by 1910, they were residing at 194 Wall street with the two sons.. Henry F. born around 1875 and Franklin b 1880. Charles brother Henry also lived with them and was employed as a "Crockery merhant". Charles has been listed as a medicine dealer and merchant at times, but by 1900 he is listed as a jeweler. By 1900.. son Henry, who is now called Harry.. probably becasue Uncle Henry lived with him his whole life was married to his wife Isable H.. and they were ALL listed as jewelers. They had two children Miriam and Charles F . There is no record of Miram after 1920..I don't know if she died or got married..thugh I hope she didn't die in the house!, but the son Charles goes on as living here.. first being employed as a draftsmen and later an architect. I actually found his death record...on March 5th, 1997 in Montgomery NY. I can't seem to find any record of his being married. They built my house, 168 Wall Street, in 1915. Now the crazy part.. by 1920 Harry was an optmitist working at 290 Wall Street and son Charles was working at 280 Wall street.. which happens to be the SAME ADDRESS MY OFFICE IS AT now. Cahrles V. L died in Feb 16th, 1916. By 1920, Harry mom, Isabella, was living next door at 172 Wall Street. I don't know if maybe the whole family owned a bunch of the land here because records state that Mom Isabella Owned 172, but Harry and Isable rented this house, but I know they origially built it too?? Maybe they rented it from the folks??I have them owning my house until 1927 when it was bought by Fancis Davis. And one last freakiy bit...Years ago.. when my husband first bought me my engagement ring at a local antique store.. the box is came in..that I have sitting right next to me... C.V.L Pitts and Sons.. Jewelers. So, I am guessing that maybe you are relate via Fanklin? Or the missing Miriam? Or Charles F did marry?? In anycase..I have pictures, and the carriage stone.. and its very cool!

Pitts lived in Kingston NY. He was a Jeweler who had a store .. C.V.L Pitts and Sons @314 Wall Street in the historic uptown stockade district. If you google the store name, you can actually see some scanned newspaper ads from that time mentioning the store. Now I live at 168 Wall street and my house was built in 1915 by a Harry F Pitts and his wife Isabelle Pitts.. and I am trying to find if they were any relation to Charles.. which stands to reason that they would be.. same town same name, same street! I am thinking his son??? I have heard that he was a dentist?? But my house actually has a buggy step in front of it that bares the name "Pitts" etched into the bluestone.
