Since I moved I have not been able to make sense of my jumble. However, I did have a researcher doing work on FARRELL LITTLETON, and he found him in court documents in Alexandria, VA. The time was right for him to have been the father of John Littleton who married Leanner Goddard. I have no proof that he was. I have the papers somewhere and am still searching. There was also a Pherel Littleton in Loudoun County Virginia who witnessed many marriages, and could not have been the same man as my ancester Pherel Littleton who was living in Illinois at that time. I could not trace this Pherel anywhere. I will try to get settled and will send more information to anyone who is interested. >LITTLETON-D Digest Volume 98 : Issue 75 > >Today's Topics: > #1 Re: Littleton, Goddard; 11/15/98.
