Note: THOMAS PITFOLD ( -1602) was the fifth son of Robert, and was left land in Powerstock and elsewhere by his father. Although references to him during his lifetime are scarce, quite a lot of information can be gained concerning him from the Inquisitions Post Mortem held after his death and that of his brother Sebastian. At the time of his death Thomas held quite a lot of land in Allington amongst which was a piece of land called Curtops. Curtops had been left by Robert Pitfold the father to his son Andrew but as Andrew did not inherit, the land passed to Thomas. Thomas left his lands to his brother Sebastian, though Sebastian bestowed a lifetimes interest on Curtops to Anne Pitfold, the widow of Thomas Pitfold. Thomas and Anne had no children and Anne was living in Colyton, Devon by 1615.
