Married James Amasa Little, 19 Nov 1864, Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah
Children - Christina Sabina Little, John Tullidge Little, Edward William Little, Frank Little
History - In 1859, the family had received some money left from their grandfather's estate in England. With this money, Mary and her sister decided that they would leave their native land and hide away in the vales of Utah. On the 30th March 1860, they embarked on the ship Underwriter. There were five hundred ninety-four Saints. In 1862, Mary's father, mother, brother John and wife arrived in Salt Lake.
At the dedication of the Salt Lake Theater, she with others sang "Hard Times" on the stage. Brother A. C. Thomas had taken charge of the Tabernacle choir and was also the leader of the theatrical choir. Brother Thomas chose Mary to be the principal alto because she understood music. She was a member of the Theatrical choir until Mary left the city.
In December 1865, James Little came to Salt Lake. In January 1866, he took Mary to Eagle Valley where James had been called to help settle the place. On May 17, 1867, Christina Sabina Little was born but she died a few minutes before she was born. About three months before that time, Mary's father came to live at Eagle Valley. He gave music lessons there and the surrounding valleys.
When Mary's son was 17 months old, her father went to Salt Lake. Mary and her son went with him where she stayed nine months. She stayed part of the time with her brother John. Part of the time she spent with her sister. She visited a great deal at Feramorz Little's, James own brother.
In 1871, James Little came for Mary and told her he was called to settle Kanab. He had brought Ann and her family to Payson to visit her folks when he came for Mary. So Mary went to Kanab instead of going back to Eagle Valley. James put up a shanty made mostly of willows for lumber could not be got then. It was covered with canvas. James then went and brought his first wife, Mary Jane and her family. When James was gone a group of Navajos came to Kanab. The people got together in Brother Levi Stewart's home. This was in September. They did not know what they intended to do. There were about 200 of them. They stayed a few days and then went away. They learned that the Indians were as much afraid of them as they were of them. November 1, 1891, James went to Mexico to live. The last time Mary heard from James was in 1894.
In 1897 there was a jubliee held in Salt Lake so the boys wrote and told Mary to come. They thought it would do her good and her sister Jane had been wanting her to visit her for a long time. Although she was very weak and had suffered much from heart disease, Mary had to be lifted into the wagon and left Kanab on July 15 and started for Salt Lake. There was quite a party, Gurnsey Brown's wife, John Robinson and family, and others. Mary went to see the monument of Brigham Young unveiled. On the 21st and 22nd of July, they took the electric cars from where her sister lived in the suburbs of the Tenth Ward and went down to the city to see the illumination on Main Street. All the stores were elaborately decorated with bunting and electric lights . . .
