    Charles Little (ca. 1744–1813), an immigrant from Scotland, settled in Virginia in 1768. He purchased Cleesh, an estate in Fairfax County, southwest of Alexandria, and served as a militia officer. In the 1790s he frequently visited at Mount Vernon and he served as one of Washington’s pallbearers (Washington, Papers, Pres. Ser., 9:411n; Washington, Diaries, 4:275n; 6:304–5n; Preston, Catalogue, 1:107; CVSP, 8:487).
