    Notes 
    • No marriage record has been found for this couple. The evidence of their marriage is that first, in the 1881-1882 Halifax directory she is Elizabeth KIRK, but in the next directory she is Elizabeth LITTLE, widow of David, and in the following directories she is Elizabeth LITTLE, widow of George. [Directory info extracted by Iris Shea]

      Also, there is an entry in the 1891 Census of Terence Bay (family #26) showing her as Elizabeth LITTLE. And since George LITTLE is known to have been a widower at some point, a marriage, although not proven, seems plausible. [Bob H]
