Beverly, thanks for the information. My uncle, Walter Earl Pittman, who researched our Pittman and related lines between the 1950's and 1970's was unable to find this out. Let me digest the information and I will get back to you with more questions. Thanks again. Did you know that William Randolph West was a physician in the Confederate army- under General Forrest- He and Millennium both died of typhoid fever during an epidemic a few months apart.
