FOREWORD

THE genealogy of Littleton was compiled by GEORGE C. FURBER in 1896 and printed in 1897-8.
A fire destroyed the work in 1898 and made necessary a reprint,
which was prepared under the supervision of EZRA S. STEARNS.
The extent of the errata is chiefly due to incorrect material furnished by individuals concerning their ancestry.

He removed to Nashua, remarried, and still resides in that city. He was facetious and original in ready repartee, and embalmed in the lighter annals of the north country are many of his encounters in wit with the professors of the art, who flourished in this vicinity until they grew dim in age or were elected to office. THAYER. The following authorities have been consulted in preparing this record: Gen. Bezaleel Thayer of Mexico, N.Y., author of the "Memorial of the Thayer Name"; as collected from Plymouth Memorial and other histories of that colony, viz.: "Winthrop's Journal of Mass.," Hutchinson's, Prince's, Holmes's, and also Judge Horace Metcalf's note to Dr. Elisha Thayer, of Dedham, Mass., who had examined the Eng. Law Reports on the subject of the Thayer name spelled in these reports. In those reports the name is spelled in several different ways: Thayer, Thear, Their, Thayar. The Their is of German origin, and in that language signifies an ox, or a cow, or a dealer in such, consequently is from the Continent, and is synonymous with bullock in the Eng. language. We know that about one thousand years ago, more or less, the Danes and Saxons intruded upon Eng., and the counties of Kent and Essex passed into their possession. Next we find a coat of arms conferred upon the Thayer name in the Co. of Essex, town of Braintree, Eng., from which the Thayers emigrated to America. Albert Ross Parsons, author< of "New Light on the Great Pyramid " (Ghizeh), states "that the ancient Chersonesus Taurica (the modern Crimea) was the home of the Scythian ancestors of the Saxons, or people known as John Bull." Frances Rallstone, author of "Mazzaroth, or Constellations," says "the signification of the word Taurus (sign of the Zodiac) in the Eng. language is bullock, meaning coming, ruling, step, springing forward, salvation, finishing. The Arabic, Syriac, Coptic, Greek (Septuagint), Latin (Vulgate), all meaning the the same." The Greek Omega corresponds to the Hebrew Tau or long cross. The letter "T" meaning sacrifice, finished. (Prepared by Miss Eliva Anna Thayer, of New York City.) 1. AUGUSTINE THAYER, of Thaydom, Essex Co., Eng., is the first recorded. A coat of arms was granted him, which was recorded in the Lincolnfield Heraldic Office, and has been copied by Gen. Bezaleel Thayer, of Mexico, N.Y. 2.

The name has been spelled in numerous ways, some of the more common being: Tuthill, Tuttil, Tutall, Tuttell, Tutle, Tottle, etc., but the last named seems to be the correct one, meaning "The Hill of God." There are many eminences in Eng. bearing the name of Tothill, and the present way of spelling is a corruption of it. (The Tuttle Family, by George F. Tuttle, New Haven, Conn.) 1.
