Abraham LITTLE was born before 1718 in Surry Co. VA.17,657 He was likely at least 20 when he married about 1738, so that would make him born before 1718. [NEED TO DEFINE SENTENCE: moved]658,659 Abraham was listed in the 1755 Beaufort tax list. But with Abraham was William. Might this have been the elder Abraham, this Abraham's uncle?

AR.664 He died on 22 Oct 1978 in Minneapolis.663 He was buried about Nov 1978 in Heavener OK.663 Ivy had Albert's body brought to Heavener for burial. While in his teens Albert and a neighbor boy, Frank Trusty, left home together and both "sowed their wild oats". For years no one heard from Albert; he wrote his brothers now and then to borrow money. He was never home again for long. It is believed that Albert worked in Joplin MO and married there. Ivy, more than any on of the other brothers, kept in touch with him. Ivy sent him money to come home but Albert didn't stay long. He worked some in Chicago for the Union Pacific Railway but, seemingly, was always down in his luck. The Salvation Army in Minneapolis took Albert in, gave him medical help and had him attending church. Albert wrote to Ivy several times, seemingly " a changed man".

Spouse: Faitha Jane SOFLEY. Alexander LITTLE and Faitha Jane SOFLEY were married.316


Alice LITTLE.354 Not Proven to be a member of this family.

Not named in William's will. Since he specifies his 2nd daughter and 3rd daughter, it is not likely that Elizabeth and Alice, who Thigpen lists as 1st and 2nd daughters, are both correctly placed and one or both may not be daughters of William at all. Parents: William LITTLE and Frances RAYNER.

Spouse: Penelope STALLINGS. Allen LITTLE and Penelope STALLINGS were married on 25 Jan 1825.16


Allen LITTLE137 was born about 1811 in Edgefield District, SC.153 I had assumed him to be born between 1772 and 1816 assuming father was at least 20 when his children were born and that all children were adults when listed in the will, which appears to be the case.

Linda Martin provided census data for an Allen Little who was born in 1811 in NC. He had a son named Jesse, born Oct. 1852, Itawamba County, Mississippi. Allen's age would be correct to be William's son and the given names fit. It is very likely that this is the same family, BUT NOT PROVEN. [NEED TO DEFINE SENTENCE: moved]153 Melissa was born in SC in 1847 and Allen and family were in Mississippi by the census of 1850. He appeared in the census between 1850 and 1860 in Itawamba Co.

Alton LITTLE.666 Parents: William Frank LITTLE and Martha Ellen "Marthy" ROSS.


Alvin Harvey LITTLE was born on 10 Jan 1861 in Williamson Co. IL.667 Census record. However, it is likely that he was born in Benton Co. TN as there is evidence that the David Little family was still in TN in 1864. He was living about 1876 in IL.668 Need to verify date. Same page lists 4th Sunday in Nov 76. "Hear on Wednesday following Eld. Harvey Little from Illinois preached at our church and our former moderator being ill Bro. L. acted as moderator..." He was living in Sep 1877 in Henderson Co. TN.669 Deed has Ahim H. Little as witness to sale of land by D. L. Little on 15 Sep. 1877. Likely this was Alvin H. Little and likely he was living there at that time. He appeared in the census in 1890 in Nashville AR.667 Irma quotes the Nashville Ark. School Census for 1890. He died on 27 Sep 1890 in St Louis Missouri.670 The Little Legend quotes a newspaper clipping dated 27 Sep, but which did not show the year: " Instead of being a bride today, Mrs. L.E. Stone, who was to marry Alvin H. Little this afternoon, is mourning his death. Little was killed last night by a street car while he was on his way to the home of Mrs. Stone for his last ante nuptial call. Mrs. Stone collapsed when she heard of her fiance's death."

Amariah LITTLE was born between 1816 and 1824. Father died in 1824. Mariah and Joseph were still listed as infant 1837, which means they were under 21. Thus they would have been born 1816-1824. He died on 26 Jan 1843 in Edgecombe Co. NC.372,671 According to Kinfolks of Edgecombe Co., Amariah died intestate; heirs were his brothers Joseph J. Little, Cullin Little, Wm. Gray Little, and Elisha Little; widow Mary E. Little had since died; Elisha Little died intestate without leaving lawful issue, and Wm Gray Little died leaving an only heir and son Noah Little; Joseph J. Little resided in Sumter Co. AL Jan. 1, 1854. Implication was that he died in Edgecombe on 26 January 1843; perhaps I misread it, since he apparently died on or after 29 January.

A verbal will was recorded in Sumter Co. Will Book I, pg 219 (324). Will Little, John T. Gill, and H.J. Fennell stated "A request made by Amariah Little in our presence while in his last illness and a short time before his death he wished all debts paid, and after that his mother to have the balance during her life. After her death to revert back to his heirs. We believe him to have been in his proper mind this 29th January 1843." Will was recorded February 15, 1843. He was also known as Maria. I had Amariah listed as a female and with an alternate name Maria, but both death records (Edgecombe and Sumter) indicate Amariah is male. Parents: Noe (Noah) LITTLE and Mary EDMONDSON.

Armstead LITTLE was born on 16 Mar 1826 in Anson Co. NC.215 Dan has place of birth as Union Co., but technically it was Anson Co. in 1826.

Asa LITTLE676 was born before 1767. He appears to have been an adult when he was mentioned in his father's will. He died about Nov 1821 in Edgecombe Co. NC.677,678,679 Lida Overton had provided a date of 18 Apr 1800, but it must be wrong or his son Jacob's birth year is wrong. The reference to Lesha being Jacob's guardian in 1826 would seem to indicate a much later death date.

Petition for year's provisions by the widow Felical Little was made November 1821 and alloted 1 March 1822. Lisa Guidry listed a Nahum Little as a child of Asa's, but he is not listed in The Thigpen Tribe. Parents: Jacob LITTLE and Mary (LITTLE).

Spouse: Felicia (Lesha) ALLIGOOD. Asa LITTLE and Felicia (Lesha) ALLIGOOD were married.16 Thigpen Tribe references Beaufort Deed Bk 7, p 330: John Alligood to daus Frances Little, wife of Jesse Little, and Lesha Little, wife of Asa Little. Also, Book 7, pg 247, 1832 has deed from Wm Smaw to Letia Little until her death and then to her son Jacob.

He owned on 16 Feb 1742 in Southwark Parish, Surry VA.687 Richard and Mary Webb of Newport Parish, Isle of Wight, sold Thomas Edwards and Benjamin Little of Southwark Parish, Surry Co. 108 acres in Southwark Parish adjoining 107 acres which he had sold to William Little Nov. 23, 1723.
