Hi Brenda, Wish I could compare notes. As I mentioned in my thanks to Mike and Ian, all I know about John Little is that he is the father of Alfred J.P. Little, abt 1862 Charles Little, abt 1865; Sarah Little, abt 1869; Robert Little, abt 1870, Elizabeth Little Age, abt 1873 and Clyde L. MCL. Little, abt 1876. They were all born in Portsmouth to Elizabeth Little, nee Toms, earlier married to Frederick Parkes (also a seaman). By the 1881 census, she was a widower. I found a "John Little" in the Royal Navy that could POTENTIALLY be the right person, and haven't been able to rule him out by any means (e.g. living past 1881, married to someone else in the crucial periods, etc.) This John Little appears in the 1841, 51 and 61 censuses: 1841 England Census Census Name: John Little Birth: abt 1836 - Somerset, England Residence: 1841 - Corston, Corston, Somerset, England 1851 England Census Census Name: John Little Birth: abt 1836 - Corston, Somerset, England Residence: 1851 - Bristol St George, Gloucestershire, England 1861 England Census Name: John Little Birth: abt 1835 - Bristol, Somerset, England Residence: 1861 - Canton River China, Vessels, Royal Navy, England This John Little's parents are William and Elizabeth and William is a coal miner. Doesn't seem like a match for anyone of yours, but who knows, maybe someone will recognize one of our John Littles and help us out. Best of luck in your search.
