    • 'William Pitts of Dawlish, maltster' is referred to in the release of a property in West Teignmouth in 1765 and 1768; it seems highly probable it was this William Pitts, since I have found no evidence of any other in Dawlish at this time.

      1765 release and 1768 release.

      Nothing to indicate the burial was this William Pitts, but it seems probable - I cannot find another burial that appears likely to be this William, and age on gravestone is compatible:
      "Here lyes the body of Mr. William Pitts of this parish who departed this life Novbr the 3rd 1771 Aged (79) years"
      (from Dawlish Local History Group website, grave E095)
