Best Answer

There were two men, both called William Pitt, who were both Prime Ministers of Britain. The father, Pitt the Elder, was co-Prime Minister from 1757-1761 and sole Prime Minister from 1766-1768. The son, Pitt the younger was Prime Minister from 1783-1801 and 1804-1806, through most of the period of the wars with Napoleon Bonaparte.
