These children left many descendants many of which are still unknown to this researcher.
Ann Thomas(s)son Roberts, mother of Polly Roberts is the daughter of Richard Pollard and Elizabeth Kittrell Thomas(s)on. Any who descend from Elizabeth Kittrell are welcome at our private Kittrells of America site by providing their Kittrell descent through 1850 and requesting an invite by writing to the address associated with the K of A group and this message, shown by clicking appropriately.There we have speculated on what appears to be the almost certain Kittrell father of Elizabeth Kittrell, something which seems not to appear as yet anywhere else, but this is done by pure deduction using the available information and the limited documentation to their fullest.The speculation has become more probable as more documentation is obtained on all the Kittrell lines.The earliest traceable Kittrell and the first known Kittrell establishing a continuing American family is Jonathan Kittrell, a holder of land on the eastern North Carolina-Virginia border in 1704.
Any attempt to trace before this Jonathan Kittrell, is for now, speculative as documentation of several theories, all contradictory, have all proven to be elusive.
At the K of A site, there is a growing body of information as well as documentation on this branch of the Jonathan Kittrell descendants and their place as Kittrell, Thomas(s)on, Roberts, and Cornelison descendants in our larger Jonathan Kittrell tree.We have a tree of the first seven generations with more than six thousand descendants and spouses of this Jonathan Kittrell and the total number of descendants and spouses known to this researcher exceeds twenty thousand individuals.
