Fat e my be theAnderson Pitts born abt. 1846 as recorded to be 4 years old in 1850 census. However, in some accounts it appears as if Anderson may becalled Andrew.

In the 1860 census the children listed:

Wm. 17, A.L. 15, Ben 12, Susan 10, M.E. 8, J.R, 6, N.E. 4,Theopholis 35

Wm => William, abt. 1843 A. L. => Anderson, abt. 1845

Using this information and Aunt Lell and Cemetery Markers: Aunt Lell's
1. William Pierce b. Sep 13, 1843 ck. L7 Pierce
2. Anderson L. b. abt. 1846 ?? Not in Aunt Lell's letter (maybenot son**)
3. Benjamin M. b. Nov 19, 1847 ck. L4 Ben
4. Susan Ann b. May 13, 1850 ck. L9 Ann

Aunt Lell was John Robert Pitts' (above) daughter who wrote her letter in1973.
She records 12 children. Anderson & Sallie are not mentioned. Maybe theywere
known by different names as was the custom at that time? Anderson L.could
have been the younger brother of Matthew?
