There is something odd about this set of records. The 1703/4 testimonial records that he was then R of Cheselburn; are there two different people here?
Foster: Pitt, John, s. Joh., of Blandford, Dorset, gent. Wadham Coll., matric. 11 Feb 1695-6, aged 16; scholar 1696, BA 1699, MA 1702, fellow 1703-6; rector of Stratfield Turgis, Hants, 1710-17, of Cheselborne, Dorset, 1717-33, and of Melcombe Horsey, Dorset, 1723, until his death in 1733. See Foster's Index Eccl.; Gardiner, 389.
