Hello again
I have been researching the Little name for many years and have therefore collected much data so a process of elimination is important.
In my search for Andrew Little, blacksmith of Blackpool Gate I came across your James and Margaret Little and their son Andrew.
Regrettably, our fellow researchers who submit records to the IGI have in some cases caused confusion and it’s best to use this information with caution.
It’s interesting to note that Bewcastle records began around 1665 and there are christenings for a family of Little, patriarch Archibald, dating from 17th June 1666.
I also have a Moses family connection so your Little family came into the picture once again when Jacob Moses married Mary Ann Little 1880 Brampton, 3rd quarter, volume 10b, page 643.
Ann Moses had her son Jacob before she married Thomas Hetherington and Jacob was brought up by his grandparents William and Ann Moses (nee Tweddle).
As an aside, I have a will and inventory dated 1726 where a cow called Moses was bequeathed to a wife!
To sum up there is a strong possibility that our two Little families are linked somewhere up or down the line and now that we have made contact I will bear this in mind in future research.
Best wishes
