Mitts of Connellsville Pennsylvania
Hello fellow family genealogists.
I am attempting to assist a Mitts family descendant who married into our Chancey clan in Georgia several years ago.
From what I can trace by census (very unreliable, I know) it appears that her great grandfather was John Mitts born ca. 1813 in Pa. died September 1883 in Connellsville township, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, married Nancy Jane MNU...
10 children, George W., Elmira, Elizabeth, Joseph, Catherine, John, Mary, Samuel, David I & Elmer E.

I tend to believe John was a brother to William, but could not find the link.
Any information...even speculation would be welcome...at least speculation helps with ideas and further searches..
Thank you,
Robert
