Tompson Chitty
(1815-1863)

Tompson CHITTY (1815-1863), youngest son of Joseph 'STATUTES' CHITTY; for his working life, see earlier. By his wife, Sarah BOWNESS, he had fifteen children. Somewhere in this branch, but not yet identified by me, must be the Australian footballer whom Christopher CHITTY was proud to claim as a distant cousin.
