Name Betty PITTS Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Baptised 8 Jul 1783 St. Michael’s Church, Blackawton, Devon, England
Gender Female Died Yes, date unknown
Siblings3 brothers and 1 sister Patriarch & Matriarch 
Notes - There was also a Betsy Pitts bapt in Blackawton in 1788 who could have been the mother of William Ellis, but Betty seems the more likely candidate.
I am just guessing that the 'Elizabeth' who had an illegitimate daughter in 1810 was the same person.
