Posted on: Hancock County, Il Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Hancock?read=1131 Surname: Little ------------------------- The following is taken from a "History of Hancock Co., IL" pub. 1968 p.470. "It is learned from a township plat of 1859 the names of owners of all lands in Pontoosue Township. Two plots have been owned continuously by the descendants of the owner of that time, namely; Martin Little bought the SW1/4 of Sec. 16, next owner was his son Franklin C. Little whose grand-daughter, Norene Little Zern and husband Arlie, now own it and live there. Martin Little also owned the NE1/4 of Sec. 20; it was next owned by Lorenzo, another son, then Lorenzo's nephew Arthur Little's family and at present it is owned by Arthur's grandson Bill Lionberger. theis land was bought in 1847." I am not researching this family and have no further information.
