"DESCENDANTS OF JOHN PIGOTT THE ELDER"; by Frank Lewis Brown

"The history of the Pigott family in America varies with its severalbut few branches. Summarizing these branches and their migrations,their developments, and theor locatins presents an overall picture ofthe family.
Spelling vary in public records, a results form little education asmuch as from the family varying the spelling. These variations includePigot, Piggot, and Piggott. Some are outright barbarisms such asPigget, Piget, and Pigate. One spelling of some significance isPygott. Pigott and Piggott appear to be the most common spelling."

"Pronunciation is overwhelmingly Pig'ott although the SouthwestMississippi and Northwest Florida groups are emphatic in pronouncingthe Pi'gott. South Carolina's Marion County of the early 1800's liststhe spelling Pygott, mentioned previously, indicating a pronunciationof Pi'gott."

"One of the earliest records (sic) of the family in Colonial Amreicais in 1652 appearing in Northampton County, Virginia, or the EasternShore. In the next few years the name appears in other VirginiaCounties along the James River."

"At this early point, the conjecture is that the family, somewhatscattered, divided along geographical and religious lines. Thereligious lines found some remaining in the Church of England and somebecoming Friends or Quakers. Some of the Pigotts became members of theProtestant faiths such as Baptist and Methodist."

"For a brife time the Quakers thrive in Virginia and according toQuaker histories, on the Eastern Shore especially. This peace andharmony, not lasting long, ended as suppression of this religiousgroup began. Since Lord Baltimore gave refuge to these peopl, some ofthe Pigotts settled in Cecil County, Maryland. With the Quakersettlement of Pennsylvania, the counterpart in Maryland grew stronger.eventually the Toleration Act adid in the subsiding of religiouspersecution of the Friends."

One group of pigott migrated from Cecil County, Maryland, intoFrederick County and Loudoun County, Virginia, the Shenandoah Valleyarea of Northern Virginia. This group followed the Pigott and Pig'gottspelling and pronunciation. The group divided again, one migratinginto the Quaker settlement of Belmont County, Ohio in the early1800's."

Pigotts and Quakers
"Still another griup left the Northern Virginia Quaker communities,moving into Orange, Chatham, and Randolph Countyies, of NorthCarolina. research into these counties since 1820 has been littleexcept to say the spelling of Pickett was ofttimes used. Therefore,the thread runs out and a return to Northampton County, Vurginia, totake up the other branch of the family is now in order."

Old Seaboard South
"As mentioned previously, within a few short years of the apperance ofthe name Pigott in America, the name appears in the counties ofNorfork, James City, and Henrico. These people are found in the Churchof england. Records are too fragmentary and research too little togive a complete resume of these."

"One branch of the above group migrated into North Carolina,eventually reaching Carteret County. The earliest date of the group is1723. research shows the family in evidence through the 1880 census."

"A group of Pigotts appear in South Carolina early in the 1700's Theirdescent is unproven although indicative that it is connected to theCartert County, North Carolina family. The South Carolina Pigotts arefound largley in Darlington County, with a modern day spelling ofPigate. Marion County and Georgetown County are two othe areas ofPigott residency."
