    Philip Lawrence Sitton, was born August 16, 1814, the eldest son of Lawrence and Isabel Gillespie Sitton. He was born on South Mills River, just a short distance from the site of the Sitton Iron Works which was operated by his grandfather, Philip Sitton, Sr. There is no record of Philip's early childhood or his education. At the age of 27, Philip Lawrence married Nancy Caroline Allen, daughter of William and Nancy Covil Allen, on January 6, 1842. Nancy was born April 13, 1825. Philip Lawrence and Nancy Caroline Sitton became the parents of nine children, the last being born four weeks after Philip's death in 1857, at the age of 42.

    Philip Lawrence was a farmer, farming some of the fertile bottom lands of South Mills River. This land was later to become the home place of John and Minnie Sitton Gillespie, Minnie being a granddaughter of Philip. at the time of this writing, part of this same farm is the home of Glenn and Margaret Whitaker, Glenn being a grandson of John and Minnie Gillespie. In addition to farming, Philip Lawrence also operated a grist mill, using the same mill race that was used to operate the Iron Forge of his grandfather.

    Philip's wife, Nancy Caroline Allen came to the Mills River area with her parents a short time before her marriage to Philip. She joined the Mills River Baptist Church on March 22, 1840, and remained an active member of the same for 69 years. After the death of Philip, Nancy Caroline Sitton remained a widow for some 24 years, experiencing many difficulties. She was left with the task of raising nine children, the oldest being 13 years old. Six and one-half years after the death of her husband, her youngest son, Philip Lawrence Jr., was found dead in his bed, only six years old.

    In 1881, Nancy Caroline Sitton married a widower, Alfred R. Gash. After seven years of marriage to Mr. Gash, she was again widowed. She then lived with her son, Silas C. Sitton, until her death on April 25, 1909. Both Philip and Nancy are buried in the Sitton-Gillespie Cemetery on South Mills River.

    Phillip married Nancy Caroline Allen on 6 Jan 1842 in Henderson County, North Carolina. Nancy was born on 13 Apr 1825 in North Carolina; died on 25 Apr 1909 in Mills River, Henderson County, North Carolina; was buried after 25 Apr 1909 in Sitton-Gillespie Cemetery, Mills River, Henderson County, NC.
