      JUDGE NERO C. PITCHFORD was born August 29, 1830, in Allen County, on Long Creek; he is the second of four sons and one daughter born to Orange D. and Mary E. (Fitzpatrick) Pitchford. Orange D. was born in Allen County, Ky., in 1808, was a farmer and died March, 1842. He was a son of Col. Eli Pitchford, who married Miss Davis, a native of North Carolina. She is said to be a relative of Jefferson Davis.
