Even though the Pot Pie House is in the village of Wittman, it's known to locals as "Pot Pie."  Long time residents, Percy Marshall (born 1899) and his wife Anna, disagreed about the real story.  In a 1976 newspaper interview, Percy explained the town was named after Mr. Wittman, who first came here for a visit in 1925.  Percy said, "There were many different stories about how "Pot Pie" got the name. In the old days, Wittman was a fishing village where most men worked on the water. Wives never knew when their husbands would come home so they made sure they had a "pot pie" ready and waiting."  Percy's wife, Anna told her version, "It started when the local Methodist preacher visited a different family in his congregation for dinner each Sunday and Sunday dinner was the same at each home..."Chicken Pot Pie." No one knows the true story but the name stuck and is Pot Pie to this day.
