Sorry,Eloise-don't have any further information except she died unmarried and was buried in Tweedsmuir,Peeblesshire.Some cousins of hers though ,also Littles,did move south around 1900 to Hildenborough and Leigh in Kent when the farmer they were working for moved all his stock south.

Hi Everyone,
I'd like to find an Elizabeth Ross Little in the above censuses please,if anyone has a moment.She was born Tweedsmuir,Peeblesshire in 1859 and in 1881 was a servant on Drumelzier Place farm in Drumelzier,Peebles-shire,aged 22 and unmarried.I don't think she ever married and died in the 1930s.
Many thanks,
Joan.
