Excerpt from Sketches of Pitt County: A Brief History of the County, 1704-1910; Illustrations and Maps These Sketches are not intended as a biography, genealogy or advertisement, but the demand for sketches of many of Pitt's prominent men, both of the past and the present, has made necessary the addition of a second part, where many such sketches may be found. And from a financial stand point, it has been found well to allow advertisements or a directory of some of the County and Towns. But all are parts, separate and distinct, and not confusing. With a consciousness that much matter of historical value is here preserved that should be a source of patriotic pride to the people of the County, and simply asking credit for whatever merit may be found in them these Sketches of Pitt County are respectfully submitted.
