Elizabeth Littlefield


Relationship to POC: presumed enslaver

Status (enslaved, free or both): free

Town: Wells

Known dates: 1758

"Pegg, a servant, was brought by Elizabeth Littlefield in 1758." - Shelley, p. 153

It's unclear who this Elizabeth Littlefield was and what family she was part of. Bourne (p. 338) only mentions an Elizabeth Littlefield who was widowed in 1712; it seems unlikely that this is the same person.
