John LITTLE912,913 was born between 1626 and 1642 in maybe Corsham, Wiltshire County, England.914 Because of our DNA match with Barry Little of Wiltshire England, whose line is traced to Corsham in the 1600s, it seemed that our John Little might be the one who migrated to Barbados in 1657. There are two possible christenings for a John Little at Corsham: 1626 & 1635. The website sponsored by Price and Associates, cited Pether W. Coldham, The Bristol Registers of Servants Sent to Foreign Plantations, 1654-1686 and Anthony Salerno, "The character of emigration from Wiltshire to the American Colonies, 1630-1660," unpub. Ph.D. dissertation, University of Virginia, 1977, 229.

However, the record of Jon. Liddel's importation to Surry Co. by Gregory Rawlins in 1653 seems more credible. But why does John not show up in the records until 1683?

For now, I am basing his age on the military record. John Little found in Surry Co. VA in 1701 was listed as too old to serve, so he would have been born in 1641 or earlier (60 was upper age limit).

He immigrated on 10 Jun 1653 to Surry Co. VA.915,916 Jon. Liddel, 1653, by Gregory Rawlins, Surry Co. Virginia. Among the 10 transportees brought in by Rawlins were Jon Liddel and Adrian Poole. Rawlins received 476 acres on the S side of the James River and E side of Chipoakes Creek. He was living in 1683 in Lawnes Creek Parish, Surry Co. VA.917 John first showed up in the Tithables list in 1683, while William Little was in it as early as 1674. It is quite possible that John was living in Isle of Wight, since that is where the Procter family seemed to be. He was living in 1687 in Surry Co. VA.918 John Little was listed in the Militia in Surry County VA for Foot. He was living in 1695 in Surry Co. VA.919 In the 1695 list of tithables for Surry County were Jno. Little & Fra: Little. The first man listed was the head of household who was responsible for the tithe for the other men in the household age 16 and above. So generally, if the surname was the same, John would have been the father and Francis the son. He was living in 1701 in Surry Co. VA.920 John Little was listed as an old man unfit for service in Thomas Holt's Company of Foot. This would imply he is at least 60 since that was the age to be exempt. That would make him born by at least 1641. He died about Oct 1704 in Surry Co. VA.50 John Little devised his will 20 Feb., 1703/4. It was probated 7 Nov. 1704. He mentioned wife Elizabeth, son John. His estate was to be divided amonth "my children." The will was witnessed by Phillip Shelley and James Griffin.

June 10, 1653, Gregory Rawlins, son of Gregory Rawlins dec'd, was granted 476 acres in Surry Co. on S. side of James River on E. side of Chipoacks Cr. for transportation of 10 persons including Jon. Lidell and Adrian Poole. (patent Bk 3; Cavaliers & Pioneers, pg. 239)

There was also a William Little who was granted 100 acres in Northumberland Co. on S side of great Wicocomoco River, 4 June 1655 for transportation of Martin Poole and Jane Poole. Patent Book 3, pg, 345. (C&P, Bk 3, pg 308). Patent assigned 8 Dec. 1658, p. 197 (287) from Little to John Hudnall. (C&P, Bk 4, p. 372)

Sep. 28 1657, p. 163 (24)) John Gillett was granted 600 acres on S. side of Rappa. Riv. for transportation of 12 person including Thomas Liddell. (C&P, Bk 4, p 363)

Jan 29 1657, John Little from Corsham, Wiltshire, laborer was transported from Bristol to Barbados by Daniell Sam mariner

August 18 1657, John Little was transported from Bristol to Barbados by John Ballman merchant

8 Dec. 1658, William Little & John Hudnall were granted

29 Mar 1666 in Northumberland Co., 2700 acres were granted to Wm. & Peter Prestly for transportation of 54 persons. Included were Peter Prestly, Wil. Prestly and his wife, Wm. Ould, Tho. Poole, Jno Price, and Jno Little. (Cavaliers & Pioneers, p. 4, Patent Book 6).

In Oct. 1666, p. 1, Geo. Dawson & Francis Haydon were granted 1000 acres for transportation of 20 persons including Thos. Poole, Jno Price, Sarah Price, Jno Little and others. (Northumberland Co. VA, Patent Book 6, pg 1) So is this the same group of people multiple times?

Sept. 6th 1692, in Surry County, John Little was on a grand jury (Surry County, Virginia Court Records, 1691-1700, Book V, pg 46).

July 1694 (Surry Co. VA, Book V, pg 106), Jno. Little & his wife Eliza. are defendants in a suit by Edwd. Cockerill. Sept. 1694, Edward Cockerhill as marrying Eliza. Proctor did not present his account against John Little and Eliza. his wife, so were ordered to pay damage. (Book V, pg. 109).

At same time Tho. Warren and Robert Hart were on a grand jury.

Meale whereby the plaintiff alleadged he was damnified at least tenn thousand pounds of tobo. for which he prayed judgement with cost ..." The jury found for the plaintiff 5 pounds of tobacco. Parents: Living.

Spouse: Elizabeth [PROCTOR]. John LITTLE and Elizabeth [PROCTOR] were married about 1678 in Virginia.50 Elizabeth's first husband, Ambrose Procter, died in 1673. Francis Little was born about 1679. So she married John sometime in between.

The two sons of Ambrose and Elizabeth (John and William) were listed with John Little on the tithables list starting in 1684 for John and 1687 for William, which would have made them 6 and 3 when their father died.

In July 1694 (Surry Co. VA, Book V, pg 106), Jno. Little & his wife Eliza. are defendants in a suit by Edwd. Cockerill. Sept. 1694, Edward Cockerhill as marrying Eliza. Proctor did not present his account against John Little and Eliza. his wife, so were ordered to pay damage. (Book V, pg. 109). Edward Cockrill was listed on the tithables with John in 1688.

Daughter Sarah Brown and son-in-law James Brown were also listed. He died about Sep 1784 in Surry Co. VA.921 The will was recorded 28 Sept. 1784. I believe I have combined two John Littles here.

John LITTLE was born before 1738. John was listed in the Beaufort tax list of 1755 and was listed as having one slave. It seems likely he would have been at least 21 by then and likely a little older. James, the apparent next born, was listed in 1755 but not paying poll, indicating he was at least 17 and not 21. He was paying poll tax in 1762, Josiah in 1763, and George in 1764. This implies that James was 21 by 1762, Josiah turned 21 in 1762/63, and George turned 21 in 1763/64. He died in 1783 in Pitt Co. NC.923 Parents: Thomas LITTLE.

John Sebastian LITTLE was born on 15 Mar 1851 in Sebastian Co. AR.392,405 The article in the Sebastian Atlas only provided a year and place of birth, but the article at the Old State House provide the date and said he was named Sebastian because he was the first child born in that state.
He was elected as Congressman & Governor in 1906 in Arkansas.392,405 The Biography in the Sebastian Co. Atlas, which was likely provided by himself, states:
"LITTLE, JOHN SEBASTIAN. Born in Sebastian Co. Ark., in 1851, being the son of Jesse and Mary E. (Tatum) Little. Received his education at the common schools of Sebastian County at Cane Hill Ark. Remained on the farm until 1872, when he began teaching and the study of law.

He was then elected a member of the Legislature, where he served with distinction to himself and his constituents. He was next elected as Circuit Judge and served one term, after which he was elected to Congress, where he is now serving his fourth term and has been nominated and elected for a fifth term. In 1877 he married Miss Irwin and the children of this marriage are Jesse, Paul and Monte. In every part of Mr. Little's career he has shown all the traits of character, honesty, industry, forcefulness and freedom from sham which mark the man who succeeds in public or private life."

In 1906 he successfully ran for governor of Arkansas, but suffered a nervous breakdown 2 days after taking office on January 14, 1907. For about a month his son and wife ran the office of governor.

Joseph LITTLE was born on 16 Jan 1727/28 in Plymouth Massachusetts.257 He was not in father's will. Parents: Isaac LITTLE and Sarah CHURCH.


Joseph LITTLE16 was born between 1741 and 1746 in Surry Co. VA. Basing age on William being born in 1745 - per Alice Smith, a great granddaughter of William. Joseph was listed in the 1762 list as an adult; thus he would have been born no later than 1741. John was listed with him; could have been his son or his younger brother. I am guessing that it was the younger brother. He was living in 1762 in Pitt Co. NC.792 Joseph was listed in the 1762 and 1763 tax lists for Pitt Co. NC. He also paid for John, making John 16 to 20 years old. That would make John born 1743 to 1747. If you assume John is Joseph's son, which is likely, and that Joseph was at least 20 when John was born, Joseph would have been born by 1727 and likely earlier. He died in 1799.16 The Thigpen Tribe says Joseph had 5 sons and 5 daughters according to recorded records (which they do not reference). Parents: William LITTLE and Morning (LITTLE).

Spouse: Unknown BLOUNT. Joseph LITTLE and Unknown BLOUNT were married.16 Children were: John LITTLE, Edmund LITTLE, Joseph R. LITTLE.


Joseph Daniel LITTLE was born on 13 Dec 1869 in Camden, Benton Co. TN.131,941 He died on 2 Jun 1954 in Hot Springs AR.833 Joe D. lived his last years with son Homer in Hot Springs.

Joseph E. LITTLE was born on 18 Feb 1875 in Union Co. NC.49 He died on 12 Feb 1877.942 Parents: Samuel Knox LITTLE and Lydia Caroline GRIFFIN.


Joseph H. LITTLE was born about 1905.456 Joseph was listed as 5 in the 1910 census. Parents: Frank (James) LITTLE and Dorcas TRAYWICK.


Joseph J. LITTLE was born between 1816 and 1824. See note for Amariah He was living on 1 Jan 1854 in Sumter Co. AL.373 Parents: Noe (Noah) LITTLE and Mary EDMONDSON.


Joseph Knox (not proven) LITTLE was born about 1826 in NC.781 He was 34 in the 1860 census. He appeared in the census in 1850 in Union Co. NC.943 Joseph Little, age 24, was listed on page 92. With him were Jennet, 27, and Green D., 1. He appeared in the census in 1860 in Union Co. NC.944 Joseph K? Little was listed at Olive Branch PO as 34, Jannet 37, Green D 11, Mary A. 9, jfrances E 7, Sophrona E 3, Fetney J 1. Nearby in household 620 was Hartsville Dees and at household 632 was Elizabeth Dees, age 74. He served in the military on 25 Oct 1864 in Camp Stokes, NC; Co. F. 37th Reg..10 He died before 1870. It is likely that Joseph died before 1870, as Jennet is listed in the 1870 census and Joseph is not. According to Annie Lee Traywick, George W. Little was one of the administrators of Joseph's estate in the 1870s. It is unclear where this Joseph Little fits in the family. He is likely the Joseph Little who married Jane Dees in 1847. In 1844 a Jos. Little was bondsman for the marriage of Gastin Jackson and Lotty Maness. In 1850, Joseph lived very near the families of Hosea (dec'd), Isaac (dec'd), Patrick (dec'd), and Menon Little. Oct. 24, 1853, a Joseph Little witnessed a deed from Dugal W. Ross and one from Cally Ross to Sheperd Edwards.

It seems possible that Joseph is the elder son of Patrick Little and Isabella Medlin? While there is no mention of him in Patrick's estate papers, the 1840 census lists 6 young males, the oldest of whom was 15 to 20. This could be Joseph. The estate papers probably just listed the minor children, thus explaining the absence of his name.

Annie has him listed as Joseph Knox Little. The Marriage License list has Joseph A. Little, but likely the transcriber read the K as an A. Parents: Patrick LITTLE and Isabel MEDLIN.

Spouse: Jannet DEES. Joseph Knox (not proven) LITTLE and Jannet DEES were married on 8 Nov 1847 in Union Co. NC.342 Wm. Sinclair was the bondsman. Jesse Little was bondsman for William Sinclair's marriage to Margaret Little. Children were: Green D. LITTLE, Mary A. LITTLE, Frances E. LITTLE, Saphrona E LITTLE, Fetney Jane LITTLE, Sarah Margaret LITTLE.

Josephine LITTLE was born in 1833.16 Parents: Louis Gray LITTLE and Elizabeth (LITTLE).


Josiah LITTLE was born about 1743.792 James, Josiah, and George Little were all listed with Thomas in the 1763 tax list, indicating they were born between 1743 and 1747.
