    Notes:

    Name:
    It has been brought to my attention that Ira Little might not be the son of Elias Little and Hannah Young. According to the book, "A Diary of Lewis young Whitehead", Elias and Hannah Young had the following children: Ephraim, Elias, Abraham, Abby, Nancy and Hannah. There is no mention of a son Ira.

    The 1860 Census includes an Isaac Little living with the widow Eliza. This Isaac could possible be a brother to Ira and was just helping out the family at that time. So as of now, Feb. 2013, I do not know who the parents of Ira Little are.

    Ira married Eliza WILLIS about 1837. Eliza (daughter of Jacob WILLIS and Phebe Elizabeth HEWLETT) was born on 20 Sep 1817 in New Jersey ; died on 26 Nov 1895 in Jefferson Twp., Morris County, New Jersey; was buried in Holland Cemetery, Milton, Morris Co., New Jersey.
