Ping Will Pitt or someone else who might know
I am in a US history class in colege. One night while studying I ran across a framiliar name, William Pitt. Is the Will Pitt that posts here realy named Will Pitt or is it just a monkier. If real maybe he could be a distant realative. Curiousty just got the best of me. Bye all.

1. same person, although if you're speaking of the historical
figure long since passed away, definitely not the same guy. try this:

named Myrna. ;)

Seriously, WillPitt is really named William Pitt. And I have seen him post that he is a distant relation of the William Pitt that you read about in history class but you'd have to ask him for sure.

10. Pitt the Younger was almost certainly homosexual
and therefore did not sire any children. So I have been told, anyway.

9. William Pitt is my real name
and I am a descendant of Pitt the Elder, along with a series of Pitt folk who did things like discover Bermuda and run India for the crown.

Hope that helps.
