I have traced back Littletons to 1300s in Cornwall - my gt gt grandmother was Eleanor. I have discovered that her nephew, Nicholas worked with Brunel on the royal albert bridge. Her brother was a doctor and so were his three sons. thomas was chief surgeon in the royal navy and was basedin Greenwich. family names are nicholas, hugh, william mainly. any other links?

Hi Dorothy
My Eleanor Littleton married Phillip Porter - her father was Nicholas Littleton and Thomasine Dewstowe. However, there is also a Mary Littleton born St Winnow in my tree. My genes tree is not fully up to date, I have much more on my own database.
