- "Mrs. Elizabeth Dey Clark Little, who died in her home in Marion, Ohio, October 1908, was a "Real Daughter" of the American Revolution and honorary member of the Findlay [OH] Chapter. She had received the golden spoon from the national society. Mrs. Little was the only daughter of her father's fourth marriage and was born in Delaware County, Ohio, March 16, 1819. Her father, Israel Clark, was born in Connecticut in 1751 and entered the service of his country in 1775, serving throughout the war of the Revolution. He was a pensioner of the United States. He died February 5, 1827, in Richland Township [Marion County, Ohio], and is buried in the Smith Graveyard in the same township. Mrs. Little came to Ohio at the age of eight years [good trick if she was born in Ohio]. In 1843, she married John Little who died in Hardin County, Ohio, February 2, 1891. Mrs. Little was the mother of six children with one of whom, a daughter, she was making her home at the time of her death."
