  Notes	Thomas Little first appears in Plymouth records on the 1633 tax list. On 4-19-1633, he married Ann Warren, daughter of Mayflower passenger Richard Warren and his wife Elizabeth. On 10-7-1633, Little sold his dwelling house to Richard Higgins for 21 bushels of corn. On 5-28-1635, he made a gift of land to his brother-in-law, Robert Bartlett. On 3-12-1638/39, William Taylor, son of William Taylor of Boddington, County Cornwall, carpenter, transferred his indenture with the consent of all from Mr. John Atwood to Thomas LIttle. Little moved to Marshfield, where he became constable on 6-3-1662. He bought farm land in Marshfield which had belonged to Maj. William Holmes, deceased, and on 6-3-1662 the court ordered that in view of his many improvements of the land, if anyone should show better title in the future, such person would have to pay him fully for his improvements. On 6-9-1665, he was fined $1/10 for not keeping secret the proceedings of the grand jury, of which he was a member. when he refused to pay rents claimed by Mrs. Rachel Daenport for the land of the late William Holmes, the court on 5-1-1666 awarded her $15, which, because of his improvements, was less than she had claimed. On 8-14-1672, administration of the estate of Thomas Little of Marshfield was given to his widow, Anna Little. His will dated 5-12-1671, inventory 4-4-1672, mentioned his wife; his sons Isaac, Ephraim, Thomas, and Samuel; his grandson John Jones; and his servant Sarah Bonney. His son Thomas, died in King Philip's War at Rehoboth, and in his will we learn that his father Thomas also had daughters Ruth, Hannah, Patience, and Mercy. The younger Thomas died without having married. The senior Thomas Little also had a daughter Abigail, who married Josiah Keene and predeceased her father.
