Later he was a real estate broker and speculator. His grandson, David J. Pitkin wrote of him in 1996: "Walter had an unending desire to have big money and it always escaped him. Always involved in some entrpreneurship; lost money on them all (including some investnments in perpetual motion). His big chance for bucks went by the wayside back before 1900. He had been invited to Palm Beach, Florida to invest with a Mr. Flagler in developing the beach as a vacation area. He came back on the train mumbling something about "damn fool . . . !" He went bankrupt in the Depression, with half the town owing him money (on the books). He owned a feldspar mine near Corinth which was going to make him rich, but something technological happened in WWI to replace feldspar as a material, and the mine went belly-up. Reminds me of Wiley Coyote. He DID build the biggest building in town which was torn down about 1960.

William Pitkin MP died in January 1644 in Berkhamsted, England. He was buried on 6 January 1644 in Saint Peters, Berkhamsted. He was born in England. The Pitkin family may have sprung from the village of Ivinghoe in Buckinghamshire, and/or from the village of Bedford in Bedfordshire. The family tradition is that the name is derived from an older name, Peterkin, which appears in both England and Scotland. The first record of a Pitkin in Berkhamsted is from the register of burials, where on August 21, 1586 is found the record of the burial of Alise Pitkyn. We don't know her connection with the first known William Pitkin, but she could easily have been his grandmother, aunt, mother, or infant sister.
William Pitkin was chosen Minister's Churchwarden in Berkhamsted in 1610, and the following year was elected Sidesman. Probably about 1612, he was made agent to the lord of Berkhamsted Manor, a part of the Duchy of Cornwall consisting of some 4220 acres of land. In this capacity, he was responsible for laying out and enclosing two royal reservations (land which was removed from use of the commoners for the exclusive benefit of the royal family), a responsibility which undoubtedly made him unpopular with the local farmers.
In 1613, William owned 25 and one-half acres, by 1622 this had increased to 39 acres, and by 1632 he was the second largest landholder in the Parish with 196 acres.
In 1614, 1633, and 1644 he was overseer of the poor. In 1622, and in 1627 he again served as Churchwarden. In 1625 he became Bailiff (Mayor) and Justice of the Peace of the Borough. When Berkhamsted was granted a new charter in July, 1618, William was one of the first Capital Burgesses, and he became Chief Burgess and member of Parliament in 1628.
In 1626, William was one of four men bound in exchequer to King Charles I as administrators of a trust of 100 pounds to supply firewood to the poor of Berkhamsted.
By the time of his death in 1645, William had accumulated a considerable estate. To his children, John and Martha he left 300 pounds each; to Joan and Jane, 200 pounds each; to Elizabeth, 20 pounds. To his grandchildren Roger and Martha he left 150 pounds each, and to William, 6 tenements in London. The balance of the estate went to his son Francis, who was the executor.

A William Pitkin and Jane White were married March 4, 1606 in St. Gregory by St. Paul, London, England.

In 1625, William paid 6/8 d for "Mrs. Mason's grave." It has been suggested that perhaps this was his mother-in-law. I'm not sure there is any good reason for this supposition. On Oct 31, 1613, an Elizabeth Pitkin was married in Dunstable (about seven miles from Berkhamsted) to "Jn. Mason". It could be this Elizabeth Pitkin Mason for whose grave William paid. She may have been an aunt, sister, cousin, or niece. Parents: William? Robert? Pitkin.

Spouse: Jane White. Jane White and William Pitkin MP were married. Children were: George Pitkin, Rev. William Pitkin, Sara Pitkin, Martha Pitkin, Francis Pitkin, George Pitkin, Martha Pitkin, Elizabeth Pitkin, John Pitkin, Joane Pitkin, Jane Pitkin.


William Pitkin died in 1665. William died in the plague. Parents: Roger Pitkin and Margarett Marston.


William Pitkin died in 1695 in England. He was buried on 15 July 1695 in Berkhamsted, England. Parents: Francis Pitkin and Elizabeth .


Rev. William Pitkin was born in December 1608 in Berkhamsted, England. He was christened on 11 December 1608. He died in July 1643 at the age of 34 in London, England. William was buried on 24 July 1643 in Saint Dunstans, Fleet Street, London. William Pitkin attended the Berkhamsted Grammar School, as did his brothers Francis, George, and John. He later attended Pembroke College, Oxford where he received his B.A on February 7, 1629, and his Masters Degree on October 27,1631. By 1634, he was back in Berkhamsted. In July of 1636, William was appointed the seventh Headmaster of the Grammar School by Charles I, succeeding Henry Hunt, who had died that year.
His wife, Elizabeth died in 1641, and presumably the three surviving children were raised in the home of a relative, probably that of his brother Francis.
In 1642 the Civil War broke out, and in 1643 William appears to have left the post of Headmaster. It is possible that, being employees of the Crown, both William and his father were royalists (his son, William, was also later given a royal appointment as Attorney General in the Connecticut Colony). Public sentiment in the area around Berkhamsted was generally pro-parliament, however.
Whatever his reasons for leaving the school, both William and his brother George went to "Mr. Stuxmey's" in Chancery Lane, London (Mr. Sturmey, perhaps?). While there, they may have been infected with the plague, for neither of them returned to Berkhamsted. William died in July aged 34, and George died two months later, aged 26. Parents: William Pitkin MP and Jane White.

Spouse: Elizabeth . Elizabeth and Rev. William Pitkin were married in 1633. Children were: William Pitkin, Roger Pitkin, Martha Pitkin, Jane Pitkin.


William Pitkin was born in 1635 in Hertfordshire, England. He died on 16 December 1694 at the age of 59 in East Hartford, Connecticut. He was buried in First Church, Gold Saint, Hartford, Connecticut. William Pitkin was raised with his brother Roger and his sister Martha at Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire. After the death of first their mother in 1640, and then their father in 1643, it is likely that their uncle Francis Pitkin cared for them, and it is likely that both Roger and William were educated at the Berkhamsted Grammar School. Upon the death of his grandfather Pitkin in 1644, William (then aged 9) inherited 6 tenements in London which may have provided the means by which he emmigrated to and established himself in Hartford, Connecticut in 1659.
Upon arriving in Hartford, he was engaged as headmaster of the grammar school there. His salary was 8 pounds and a load of wood from each student "or three shillings in lieu of wood." Several of his journals which have survived indicate that he had a strong background in theology and law.
In 1661, William's sister Martha arrived in Hartford to convince him to return to England, but she was instead persuaded to remain as the wife of Simon Wolcott, and later of Daniel Clark.
In 1662 he was made prosecutor for the Colony of Connecticut, and in 1664 he was appointed attorney general by King Charles II. He was considered one of the ablest lawyers in Connecticut. He was a Deputy of the General Court (1675-1684), Hartford's representative in the Colonial Assembly (1675-1690), Treasurer of the Colony (1676-1678), Assistant Treasurer (1690-1694), Commissioner to treat about the Connecticut-New York border in 1683 and again in 1693, and Negotiator with the Narragansett Indians in 1676.
He built his house in East Hartford, on the elevation above Pitkin (later Benjamin) Lane, but he is said to have founded the town of Barkhamsted, some five miles square, in the wilderness west of Hartford.
Upon his death, the estate of William Pitkin was valued at slightly over 700 pounds. He owned over 25 parcels of land in Hartford embracing a total of 814 acres, including a part interest in a saw mill and grist mill. His will, dated 27 September, 1694 reads as follows:

William Pitkin was born in 1664 in East Hartford, Connecticut. He died on 5 April 1723 at the age of 59. William was trained by his father as a lawyer, and was much employed in public business. In his professional practice he was no less able in repartee than in argument. He was often opposed by a brother lawyer by the name of Eelles. His opponent in a particular case, supposing that he had got the advantage of Pitkin in argument said "The court will perceive that the "pipkin" (a small earthen pot) is cracked." Pitkin's prompt reply: "Not so much, may it please Your Honor, but you will find it will do to stew "eels" in yet." He represented the town of Hartford in the General Assembly in 1696. From 1697 till his death he was annually elected by the people to the council of the colony. From 1702 to 1704 he was judge of the county court. In 1712 he was appointed Chief Justice of the Superior Court.

He was a Colonel in the First Regiment in the wars against the Indians. With Benjamin Franklin, Roger Wolcott and Elisha Williams, he served on the committee of the Albany Congress (1754) which was responsible for the confederation of the colonies. He also served as Judge of the County Court, and later in the Superior Court. Throughout his career he was an outspoken champion of colonial rights, and he was immensely popular because of this. His was one of the first voices raised against the Stamp Act. He was elected governor in 1766 by such a large and obvious majority that the ballots were never counted. He served as Governor until his death in 1769, and was succeeded in that office by Jonathan Trumbull. Parents: William Pitkin and Elizabeth Stanley.

William Pitkin59 was born on 11 February 1724 in Hartford, Connecticut. He died on 12 December 1789 at the age of 65 in East Hartford, Connecticut. William spent much of his life in public service. At the age of 31 he was commissioned a captain in the Third Militia Company of Hartford. During the French and Indian War he became Major-Commandant of the First Regiment of Connecticut Forces, serving under General Abercrombie. In 1762 he became Colonel of the First Regiment, a title he carried for life. In the realm of politics, he was known as an ardent American patriot. A member of the Sons of Liberty as early as 1765, he was their clerk in 1766 when the group became heavily involved in the 1766 election furor over the Stamp Act, which resulted in his father's election as governor. He served for nineteen years (1766-1785) on the Governor's Council, then the upper house of the legislature. For most of the Revolution he sat on the Committee of Safety, a group of assistants to the governor who were given extraordinary powers because of the war. William was elected to the Continental Congress in 1784. In 1788 he was appointed a delegate to the convention to ratify the new federal constitution. From 1769 until his death, a period of nineteen years, he was a judge of the Superior Court and became Chief Justice in 1789. He was the fourth William Pitkin to preside over the highest court of Connecticut.
William was also a manufacturer, engaging in the production of gunpowder, glass and snuff. In 1775, to supply powder for the Revolutionary Army, the General Assembly granted permission to William and his brother, George Pitkin, to establish a powder mill on the Hockanum River at Pitkin's Falls. The price set by the Assembly in 1776 (five shillings and fourpence_ was too low to pay for production, and William was compensated for his losses after the war. This was the first powder mill in Connecticut, if not in the country, being previous to that of Paul Revere near Boston. In January, 1783, in compensation for their losses during the Revolution, William, his cousin Elisha Pitkin, and Samuel Bishop were granted a monopoly on the production of glass in Connecticut for twenty-five years. They built the Pitkin Glass Works on what is now Putnam Street in Manchester. This Manufactory was among the very first producers of glass in America, making flasks, bottles and inkwells. Pitkin flasks have a distinctive swirling ribbed pattern and are now collector's items. In 1784 William was granted a fourteen year monopoly on the manufacture of snuff in Connecticut. He was also involved in a forging mill, as well as being a large landowner. His house, originally built on land he purchase from his father (now 1625 Main Street, East Hartford). It was later moved several times, and altered, but has been recently restored and is known as the Colonel William Pitkin IV House. Parents: Governor William Pitkin and Mary Woodbridge.

At a meeting of the Trustees of the Rochester Savings Bank the following resolutions were adopted May 5, 1869: "Resolved, that in the history of our city, few of its citizens have made so marked an impression for integrity, public spirit, and the illustration of every Christian virtue. He was completely a gentleman, always kind and considerate, an honest man, fulfilling with scrupulous exactness every hononrable obligation and duty." At a meeting of the Vestry of St. Luke's Curch, May 6, 1869, the following resolutions were adopted" "Resolved, that on the death of William PItkin, who for nearly fifty years has been a menber and communicant of this church, for six years a Vestryman thereof, and for thrity-nine years afterward one of its Wardens, said church has lost one of its most useful and esteemed members, one of its wisest counselors, and one of its highest ornaments." "Resolved, that we deem it but the measure of justice to the memory, merits, and services of the deceased to express the opinion that a large degree of the success, harmony, and prosperity of this church for nearly half a century are eminently due to the wisdom, prudence, unceasinng care and watchful regard of the deceased, for the best interests of said church and congregation."

William Webster Pitkin was born on 2 March 1862 in Calais, Vermont. He died before 1908 at the age of 46. William's wife Lena is listed as the widowed head of household in the 1910 census. Barre City directory for 1908 also lists Lena as widowed. At the time of the 1880 census, William and Lona were both members of the household of Howard Prentiss Martin on the River Road in Marshfield. William was a laborer and Lona was a domestic servant. Howard was William's step-father, having married Sarah Orcutt Pitkin as his second wife. Howard's first wife, Lucetta Wooster, was the daughter of William's aunt Dorcas Pitkin Wooster. Therefore, Howard's son, Curtis Martin, who also lived in Howard's household in 1880, was William's step-brother and also a first cousin.

William (called Webster) is listed in the 1900 census of Marsfield, Vt as a cattle dealer living along the River Road, fairly near Plainfield Village. It appears from the order of names in the census that he lived where the big yellow barn and covered bridge now stand, formerly known as one of the Martin farms.

Barre Daily Times, February 1, 1905 - "Deputy Sheriff H. D. Camp returned from Boston last evening, bringing with him William Pitkin, a teamster from Barre, whom he placed in Montpelier jail for safe keeping. Pitkin, who is a teamster and has in the past worked for Barclay Bros., was arrested on Jan. 2 for non-support of his family (a wife and two daughters) and was placed under $75 bonds for hearing later. The next night, Jan. 3, PItkin skipped out, securing a team and being driven to South Royalton, where he took a train south. It is asserted that he was not alone on the trip, but was accompanied by a woman not his wife. Previously, on Jan, 22, 1903, Pitkin had been arrested in a suit for damages to the amount of $1500 by the firm of Osborne & Co., dealers in harvesters, etc., and in this case he was placed under $1500 bonds. Hearing of this later arrest, Pitkin's bondsmen in the Osborne case notified the court they wished to surrender their charge, and last Friday Deputy Sheriff Camp started for Boston in search of him. Deputy Camp looked high and low for nearly two days among teamsters before getting any inkling that he was in Boston, and then he failed to learn where, but late Monday afternoon he was located in a lodging house in South Boston, and Monday evening was taken into custody by Officer Connolly of Boston and Deputy Camp, but not without resistance on the part of Pitkin. Yesterday morning the deputy and his prisoner started for Vermont, arrivinng in Montpelier last evening. Great credit is due Deputy Sherriff Camp for his good work in locating his man so quickly in a large city."

Barre Daily Times, June 21, 1907 - "Suit has been brought by Lona W. Pitkin of Barre against William W. Pitkin on the ground of willful desertion. The libel set up that they were married in Marshfield on December 11, 1880. Mrs. Pitkin asks for alimony and the custody of their minor children. The case will be tried at the September term of the Washington county court. Scott and Carver appear for the libellant."

He is not listed in the census of 1910. Lena (widowed) and the two girls were living in Barre with her mother.

Parents: Daniel Webster Pitkin and Sarah Ann Orcutt.

Spouse: Lona May Kiser. Lona May Kiser and William Webster Pitkin were married on 10 December 1880 in Marshfield, Vermont. The 1993 Pictorial History of Plainfield contains a picture of a Kiser family gathering at the Townsend Farm in District 7 (page 107 of the history). Lona is pictured in this group, and also two Pitkin girls, Lena Florina (Pitkin) Shea, and Bessie Pitkin, the daughters of William and Lona Pitkin. Lena also appears on page 59 of the history in a class photo taken at the Plainfield village school (1890) where she was apparently a student.

Lona's age given on her marriage record was 19 years on Dec. 10, 1880 Children were: Bessie E. Pitkin, Lena Florina Pitkin.


William? Robert? Pitkin was born (date unknown). It has been suggested in several online family trees that the father of William Pitkin (1582?-1644) was another William (b. Aug 19, 1557, Berkhamsted, d. Dec 5, 1639, Thaxfed, Essex) married to Alise (d. Thaxfed, Essex). It is further suggested that the father of this elder William Pitkin was Robert Pitkin (b. 1530 Berkhamsted) married to Elizabeth Pittman (b. 1525, Berkhamsted). Other sources give the parents of William (1582?-1644) as Robert Pitkin, Jr. and Elizabeth Stanley.

I have found no documentation for any of this (including the 1582 birthdate for William). Following are the early Pitkin records I have found in the Berkhamsted area.

Bernarde Pitkin was included in the Certificate of Musters for Winslow, Buckinghamshire (near Great Horwood, 21 miles from Ivinghoe) in 1522 as having property valued at 3 shillings. In the 1524 muster he is named Barnard Pitkyn with wages listed at 10 pounds.

Buckinghamshire Certificate of Musters in 1535 in the book March Buried includes a Barnard Pitkyn. Henry (1522), John (1522), William, and Richard Pitkyn (an archer), Robert Petkyn (1522), and Thomas Pytkyn (a bow, 1535) also appear in these musters.

Early Pitkin baptisms in Ivinghoe, Buckinghamshire, England (prior to 1630). The occurrence of given names William, Jane, Joan, Francis, Robert, Alice, Sara, and John are echoed in the Berkhamsted line of Pitkins. Berkhamsted and Ivinghoe are seven and a half miles apart.
