Biography
Work in progress - disentangling conflated profiles. Current plan: move sources, spouses and children to one of possibly 4 (FOUR) Walter Little profiles, then remaining profile becomes the Canadian Walter, wherever his Scottish origin was.
Also move bulk of biography to correct Walter profile.
Walter #1 from Longtown Cumberland See Walter Little (1827-aft.1891) Almost certainly died in Newcastle, UK.
Walter #2 from Netheroakshaw, Bewcastle Walter Little (1827-1894) Died in the UK.
Walter #3 from Kirkmichael and Kirkpatrick Fleming, Dumfriesshire Walter Little (1827-aft.1861) This Walter still in UK after children born in Ontario.
Walter #4 from Canonbie, 1826, but moved to County Durham Walter Little (1826-aft.1851)
Canadian Walter
All Canadian Censuses have Spouse’s name as Mary, not Margaret.
All have Walter’s birthplace as Scotland, not Cumberland, England.
Most Canadian Censuses have birth dates about 1835 rather than 1825, opening up another range of possible Walters.

I’m afraid I’ve now jumped in with a disentangling plan, as described above. I was already sorting out many other Walter Littles, so seemed a good time! Chris
I have William Little (abt. 1705 - aft. 1737) and Margaret having child Michael at Tanlahill. Does that help?
The line through Thomas Little's 1781-1866 wife Jean Beattie is more interesting. Thanks
