James Pittillo (b. 1690–1698 Scotland – d. 1754 Dinwiddie County, Virginia) was a Scots laborer and Jacobite rebel, who became a major landowner after being deported in 1716 to the Colony of Virginia. After completing service of his indenture, in 1726 Pittillo was granted 242 acres (1.0 km2) on Wagua Creek in Brunswick County, Virginia. Appointed as a tobacco inspector in Bristol Parish in 1728, that year he was also selected for the major expedition of William Byrd II to survey the border between Virginia and North Carolina. Through grants of headrights and purchases, Pittillo eventually acquired more than 4,000 acres (16 km2) in the area of what developed as Prince George, Brunswick, and Dinwiddie counties in Southside Virginia.
