This is a reproduction of the first edition 636 pages originally published in Auburn Maine 1882.</p><p>This genealogy with many interleaved illustrations offers a history of the Little family from George of Newbury the immigrant ancestor through nine generations of his descendants in both male and female lines. Almost all the first three generations lived and died in Newbury Massachusetts. Through the end of the eighteenth century i.e. ca. 1800 we rarely find the family beyond the bounds of Maine Massachusetts New Hampshire and Vermont. Within the next eighty years the family could be found in nearly every state and territory of the Union. Of the 6500 descendants mentioned in the compilation nearly 3000 claimed Massachusetts and New Hampshire as their residence about 1500 each; 750 Maine; 500 Vermont; 400 New York; and 250 Canada. Another thousand resided in "western states." The family's leading occupation was agriculture. Of fourteen hundred heads of family whose occupations were known to the compiler more than a third were farmers. About three hundred were engaged in business mechanical or professional pursuits. One in twenty served in each of the three "learned professions": theology medicine and law. Five of the family served as college presidents.
