Some information is also from Zeb Little's letter to J.B. Little. Parents: Daniel LITTLE Capt and Annie Mary LEWIS. Spouse: Rosanna TUCKER. James LITTLE and Rosanna TUCKER were married in 1788.890 Children were: Daniel LITTLE, George LITTLE, Elizabeth LITTLE, John C. LITTLE, James LITTLE, Aaron LITTLE, N. Polly (Mary) LITTLE, Sophia LITTLE, Jacob W. LITTLE, Labon LITTLE. James LITTLE was born between 1795 and 1802.315 Based his age on being minor in 1816 but not listed under the guardianship of Noah Little. I am guessing he was between 14 and 21. Parents: Exum LITTLE and Elizabeth THIGPEN. Spouse: Fannie EDMONDSON. James LITTLE and Fannie EDMONDSON were married on 5 Sep 1825 in Edgecombe Co. NC.246 James Thigpen signed the marriage bond. James LITTLE725 was born about 1798 in Stanley Co. NC.891 He died on 18 May 1847 in Stanley Co. NC.68 He was buried about 18 May 1847 in Love Grove Cemetery, Stanley Co.

James LITTLE and Sophie KLUTZ were married.892 Children were: Olmstead LITTLE, Lorenzo Merriman LITTLE, Mary Elizabeth LITTLE, Narcissa LITTLE, Israel Bidwell LITTLE, James Henry LITTLE, John Adderson LITTLE, William Alexander LITTLE, Martha Ann LITTLE. James LITTLE was born about 1833 in North Carolina.811 Parents: Elisha LITTLE and Martha TYSON. James "Jimmy" LITTLE893 was born about 1810 in North Carolina.518 He appeared in the census in 1840 in Anson Co. NC. While I am far from certain that the Jas Little listed in the 1840 census is this James Little, it certainly looks like a good possibility. Jas. Little is 30-40, with 1 male 5-10, 1 male under 5, 1 female 20-30, and 1 under 5. He appeared in the census in 1850 in Union Co. NC.518 James Little was listed as 40, $300 real estate, and born NC. With him were Sarah 38, Sophia 16, George W. 14, Susan E. 12, Edmond D. 10, Emeline 6, James W. 3, Harvey F. 1 month and John Watts 28, Laborer. Two households away was Ennis Staton. Two pages earlier were Wm. S. Phillips, Cullen Curlee, Charles Griffin, John Helms, and Jacob Mullis. He appeared in the census in 1860 in Henderson Co. TN.750 James Little was listed in Henderson Co. with a family of 9. George W. had apparently already moved out. He appeared in the census in 1880 in Henderson Co. TN.894 James Little was listed as a farmer from NC, whose parents were born in NC. With him were Susan E. 35, daughter, Mahaly E. 35, daughter, and James Holmes, 8, grandson. Next door was Wm P. Little age 27, and wife Priscilla J, age 24. He was buried in Center Hill Cemetery, Lexington, TN.33 NOTE: The connection to Isaac Little is not proven. James Little is said to be one of the earliest settlers in Western Tennessee. A Henderson County Times article about Center Hill says that Wilson Cager Grissom came there from North Carolina in 1825. They state that Jimmy Petty, Taylor Thomas, Jimmy Little, and Hosea Preslar all came soon after. However, Jimmy Little and Hosea Preslar were still living in Union Co. NC in 1850, and it seems likely that they migrated to Henderson Co. along with the group that likely included Theophilus Holmes, Dugal Ross, and other families from Union and Anson Co. NC. Wayne Little, in our visit May 1999, said that James was the brother of our Jacob Little (father of David L. Little). He was told this by his grandfather and father. Recent DNA testing strengthen's the tie of Jimmy Little to our line. Randall Little descends from Miles T. Little. His DNA matches 24/25 to my cousin Harry Little's DNA. Based on the DNA testing, I believe that Jimmy might have been a son to Isaac & Delilah Little. I have not been able to find anything on any of Isaac's (brother to the senior Jacob Little) children except the oldest daughter and Michael Little. DNA test results are at http://www.geocities.com/littlednaproject/Results.htm Parents: Isaac LITTLE and Delilah TEAL. Spouse: Sarah HOLMES.

Parents: Jesse LITTLE and Frances ALLIGOOD. Spouse: ALLIGOOD. ALLIGOOD and Jane LITTLE were married.16 Jane LITTLE was born before 1735. Assume she was at least 16 since she was married before her father's death in 1756. Jane Little witnessed the will of Benjamin Bell, along with Jacob Little, 16 May 1751. If this was the same Jane, she must have been at least 16, which would make her born before 1735. Parents: William LITTLE and Morning (LITTLE). Spouse: MORING. MORING and Jane LITTLE were married before 1756. Based on the mention of Jane Moring in her father's will. Jane LITTLE676 was born before 1772.

NC.901 Jane made deed of gift to brother Nahum 26 Sept. 1793, formerly property of Jacob Little decd. She died in 1832 in Edgecombe Co.

Jesse LITTLE.661 Grace does not have proof that Jesse's father is Edmund. Jesse is her ancestor. "One piece of circumstantial evidence is that Lucius, the son of Gray Little from Marengo County, and James Gray, the son of Jesse Little, both wound up in Pearsall, Frio County, TX , at the same time." Parents: Edmund LITTLE. Jesse LITTLE16 died before 1787.16 The Thigpen Tribe speculates that Jesse had died before Jacob Little made his will since he was not listed in any of the wills (Jacob, Jane). However, none of Jesse's children were mentioned in Jacob's will, so he might have still been living then. Parents: Jesse LITTLE and Frances ALLIGOOD. Jesse LITTLE was born before 1737.903 Jesse was likely an adult when his father gave him land on the same day as he gave his daughter Sarah Browne land (20 Dec. 1757). Witmesses for both deeds were Robert Hart, Benjamin Little, and Henry Moring. Parents: John LITTLE and Anne WARREN. Jesse LITTLE676 was born before 1757. He appears to have been an adult when he was mentioned in his father's will. When he died in 1787 he had 5 children, so it is likely he was at least 30. He died in 1787.676 The Thigpen Tribe calls Jesse the oldest son of Jacob, but Jacob left nothing to his heirs which seems rather odd. Parents: Jacob LITTLE and Mary (LITTLE). Spouse: Frances ALLIGOOD. Children were: Jesse LITTLE, Sarah LITTLE, Frances A. LITTLE, Jane LITTLE, Fannie LITTLE. Jesse LITTLE was born about 1758 in Edgecombe Co. NC.904 World Family Tree has date of birth as 1742. He owned land in 1824 in Edgecombe Co. NC. He had property on Tarr River opposite the mouth of Town Creek. He died about Aug 1825 in Edgecombe Co.
