Notes

Note N42In the 1790 census for Massachusetts, Hampshire County, Westfield; a Samuel Pitt is shown in the following household: 143

Samuel (b. 1770) could be married and this may be his household with younger sons and daughters

1 male +16 Samuel (b. 1746)

4 males -16 Noble (b. 1774)

Luke (b. 1776)

Charles ?

Henry (b. 1786)

John (b. 1788)

3 females Silence (b. 1771) could be married

Hannah (b. 1778)

Cynthia (b. 1780) could be wrong birth year for Cynthia

Hannah Noble (b. 1752)

In the 1790 census for Massachusetts, Hampshire County, Orange; a Samuel Pitt is shown in the following household: 234

My speculation:

2 males +16 Samuel (b. 1746)

Noble (b. 1774)

4 males -16 Luke (b. 1776)

Charles ?

Henry (b. 1786)

John (b. 1788)

4 females Silence (b. 1771)

Hannah (b. 1778)

Cynthia (b. 1780 or 1790)

Hannah Noble (b. 1752)

This household appears to be the better fit.

In the 1800 census for Massachusetts, Hampshire County, Orange; a Samuel Pitts is shown in the following household: 1131101110

1 male -10 Quartus (b. 1792)

1 male 10-15 John (b. 1788)

3 males 16-25 Charles ?

Henry (b. 1786)

unknown

1 male 26-44 Noble (b. 1774)

1 male 45+ Samuel (b. 1746 = 54)

1 female 10-15 Hannah (b. 1778) or Cynthia (b. 1790)

1 female 16-25 Cynthia (b. 1780)

1 female 26-44 Hannah Noble (b. 1752 = 48)

Samuel, Luke and Silence would have been old enough to have married. Hannah Noble's age is off and Thankful (b. 1794) is missing.

In the 1800 census for Massachusetts, Hampshire County, Orange; a Samuel Bishop Pitts is shown in the following household: 1121101001

1 male 10-15 John (b. 1788)

2 males 16-25 Charles ?

Henry (b. 1786)

1 male 26-44 Noble (b. 1774)

1 male 45+ Samuel (b. 1746 = 54)

1 female 10-15 Cynthia (b. 1790) or Hannah (b. 1778)

1 female 45+ Hannah Noble (b. 1752 = 48)

Samuel, Luke and Silence would have been old enough to have married. Hannah Noble is a better fit, Cynthia (if b. 1780) could also be married but Thankful is missing.

In the 1800 census for New York, Washington County, Salem; a Samuel Pitts is shown in the following household: 2001001
