Robert Little (b. 20 Mar 1820, Scotland; d. 5 Jan 1875, Cayuga, Ontario). Photograph of his wife Mary Murray is below. Source: Jocelean Swan Hall, 25 Jul 2006.

Jocelean Swan Hall found this picture and the one below in an old album kept by her grandmother Eleanor Grieve Wilson. It had the following notations, on top of this picture was written in her shaky handwriting: "big Alex Little's father and mother" and below the picture of the man was written: "Old Bob Little of Canada". Each of the pictures was enclosed in a white paper frame with no markings of the photographer. Her great grandmother Janet Little Wilson was a sister of Robert Little, so she assumes this was why the pictures were in the album.

    It is believed that Robert came to Harvey with his brothers and applied for land.  However, he relinquished his claim for 50 acres of land to his brother Matthew, half lot adjoining north of William, third tier, west side.  (RS 108 F42121 (1840) PANB)  He moved to Ontario and settled in the North Cayuga Township area, where he was a farmer.

    Robert and Mary had nine children, three of whom died in early childhood.  All of their children with the exception of Alexander, are buried in Riverside Cemetery in Cayuga, where Robert and Mary are also buried.  (Alexander is buried in the Brockway Cemetery.)

    The Little family plot in Cayuga Cemetery is directly behind the plot for the Murray family, presumably Mary's family.
