As a young man, John left home in Connecticut and moved to Maryland where he was a blacksmith and a farmer. He married a woman named Elizabeth Pindell on 09 Jun 1729 in Queen Anne’s Parrish, Prince George’s Co., Maryland. Elizabeth was the daughter of Phillip and Elizabeth Holland Pindell. The Pindells were apparently a fairly wealthy family for records show that when John and Elizabeth’s first daughter was born, Phillip Pindell gave his new granddaughter (also named Elizabeth) a young slave girl named Sarah, aged five.

John and Elizabeth had seven children: Elizabeth Sitton, b. May 15, 1730; Benjamin Sitton, b. April 17, 1732; John Sitton, b. August 15, 1733; Phillip Sitton, b. August 15, 1733 d. 1788; Christopher Sitton, b. 1738; William Sitton, b. 1742, Culpepper Co., VA; d. Abt. 1823, Greene Co., TN., and Joseph Sitton, b. October 15, 1745, Culpepper Co. VA. Phillip and John were twins.

Family tradition says that John, William, Christopher and Joseph all served in the Revolutionary War. Supporting documents are available for William, Christopher, and Joseph. I was unable to locate John’s records.
