PETYT (THOMAS), printer in London, began to print in 1536 issuing in that year an edition of the Rutter of the Sea. In 1543 he was imprisoned for a short time in the Poultry Compter for printing unlawful books. [Acts of the Privy Council, N.S., vol. i, pp. 107, 117.] He printed on until 1554 and was apparently still alive in 1556. His place of business was at the Maiden's Head in St. Paul's Churchyard next door to Robert Toy { TOY, Robert ( - 1556) ‹ LBT 08604 › } at the Bell.

It has been suggested by Herbert and others that Petyt was a relation of Jean Petit of Paris. It is clear from the Subsidy Rolls of 1541 that Petyt was English by birth, but some probability that there was a connexion between the English and French families is found in an entry in the Exchequer receipts "John Petytt of Parrys hath in thaundes of Thomas Petytt in bookes prynted the sum of XXli."
