THE LITTLE FAMILY.
George Little came to Newbury in 1640 and married Alice Poor, who came to New England in 1638. They had three sons-Joseph, John and Moses-and nine grandsons. It is claimed by some that Thomas, who settled here, was of the Newton line, as the descend- ants of George, the emigrant, had become in 1820 to number some six thousand inhabitants, but as neither sons nor grandsons bore the name of Thomas, we may be positive that he was a descendant of Thomas Little, who landed in Plymouth in 1630, and whose posterity are as numerous and as widely scattered as those are of his brother George. He married, Apr. 19, 1633, Ann, daughter of Richard Warren.
Among the Plymouth line of descendants are Ephraim, a grad- uate of Harvard, 1695; Capt. George, a distinguished naval officer

in the War of the Revolution; Hon. Edward, member of Congress from Massachusetts ; Rev. George B., pastor of a West Newton church. Thomas, a descendant of Thomas, Sen., made a pitch on a tract of land east of the Old Centre, which was granted to him by the General Court in 1732. He is represented on the records paying rates and bearing his proportion in the organization of the district till 1742, when a part of his farm was sold " at public ven- due " to pay his proportion to the General Court of the £500 so ordered. His son bid it off, and the records say they let him have it, "for he bid higher than any other man." We become more familiar with the family in church affairs, as the trouble the inhab- itants had with Rev. Mr. Harvey leaves their names on the records frequently. It is doubtful if he staid in town long after Mr. Har- vey left, as the records show no marriages of children, except a daughter to Duncan Quinton. He had three sons-Ephraim, Thomas, Jun., and William. "They went from here to the State of New York.

GENEALOGIES AND RECORDS.
THE MCMASTER FAMILY.
John McMaster and family came from Leicester in 1733. They had six children-James, Hugh and John (twins), Robert, Catha- rine and Joshua. John, Sen., bought the James Dorchester farm. James bought the lot south of John Moore, which was sold to James Dorchester, Jun. (the Clark McMaster farm). In 1739 the father gave a deed of his place to his son, John, Jun., who erected a house on the lot southerly of the old location. It is now the old- est building in town. The McMasters came from Ireland in the same ship with the family of Robert Ferrell in 1720. He, with others, tried to find a home near Worcester, but found no contin- ued abiding place till they arrived here.
