I am working on my mother's family. I have got back to my great-great grandfather Robert Pitman. In 1871 the census gave his family details as living in Evercreech:

Name Age in 1871 Birthplace Relationship
Robert Pitman 37 South Cadbury, Somerset, Head
Edith Pitman 33 Doulting, Somerset, Wife
John Pitman 24 South Cadbury, Somerset, Brother
Henry Pitman 16 Doulting, Somerset, Son
Charles Pitman 14 Downside, Somerset, Son
Mary I Pitman 12 Downside, Somerset, Daughter
William G Pitman 9 West Cranmore, Somerset, Son
George L Pitman 6 West Cranmore, Somerset, Son
Tom Pitman 3 West Cranmore, Somerset, Son
Annie M Pitman 3 months Evercreech, Somerset, Daughter

By 1881 he was living at Hambledon, Hampshire with two further sons:

John PITMAN 8 Hambledon, Hampshire, Son
Burtt. Jas. PITMAN 3 Hambledon, Hampshire, Son

In particular I am trying to identify Robert Pitman's father. Any assistance gratefully received.

Yours aye

Stephen
