General Notes: Husband - Joseph M. Littell


In his youth he attended the public schools of his birthplace, completing his studies at the Darlington Academy. Living on the home farm, he was, of course, his father's assistant in the numerous labors incident to farm life, and in the years prior to his father's death managed the property entirely. After the death of the latter he and his sister, Ina B., purchased the interests of their co-heirs and thereafter lived on the home farm. They called their home "Highland Farm" and he conducted farming operations, specializing in the breeding of Fresian Holstein cattle of a high grade. He was a sympathizer with the principles of Republicanism, and several times was the choice of his party as candidate for local offices and the elected representative of his neighbors. His church was the United Presbyterian at Darlington.
