The 1830 census shows he has six sons and one daughter so we are not complete with this reearch. JONAS LITTLE FAMILY quoted from Guffie Through the Years, by Elizabeth Smith Cox: In the month of October, 1860, Mosarret Lodge F. & A.M. No 379 - was chartered at the site first called Little's Camping Ground, address then given was Cedar Grove. Officers were: Master, George Little II ((NB 1)); Senior Warden, James Monroe Hancock; Junior Warden, Granderson Mitchell. By the year 1874, both the Church and Lodge were in need of a new meeting house and agreed to share in the construction and maintenance of a two story frame building to replace the log church a the same location. The lower floor was to be used by the church as their sanctuary and the upper floor for the Lodge's monthly meetings. This arrangement existed for almost one hundred years. The building was razed in 1970 at which time Brushy Fork Church moved to the village of Panther and the Masons erected a new Lodge Hall on Highway 564, a short distance north of Panther. Yet visible are some of the stones used as the foundation for either the old log church or schoolhouse at Little's Camping Ground. The cemetery adjacent to this building has long since been abandoned and is now practically obliterated. The remaining tombstones are lying flat or leaning against a tree. Jonas Little was laid to rest here with other members of his family. The inscription on the marble slab that marked his grave reads: Jonas Little born Feb 11, 1780 - died Apr 12, 1850. It was ten or more years later that his wife, Betsy passed away and is believed to have been buried at his side but no marker has been found.
