For another stretttttch -- Alice do you know if your Little family could be connected to the Little that married into the Robb family? I believe Nora B. Robb, daughter of Thomas Benton Robb and Mary Ann Campbell, married Ellsworth Little. Ms. Cecil V.

Cecil: This is not a stretch - it is true. Elsworth Little, brother of Gladys, Robert W. Maggie, John "Jack" (this is my husband's line), William Jr., Maude and Jennie married Nora Robb. I have two children listed; Garletta, born 30 May 1902, d. 15 August 1902, and another girl, born 26 September 1903. That's about all I have on this family.
