May Family Tree Main Index Page | Family tree index Posted: November 2000 Descendants of Hans Peter Meÿ Elizabeth (Betsey) May [abt.1790-1884] Generations:  Eight - Nine Daughter of John May [1760-1813]   For many years after Betsey and her husband, James W. Little, migrated from Pike County, KY to Alabama (before 1830), the descendants of her brothers and sisters had little information about the Little family. We are fortunate that Jaunelle S. Sewell compiled We, the Little People, an extensive book on the descendants of James W. Little, in 1987. Most of the information on this branch of the May family is from her book. Present-day descendants continue to add to the record. 8 Elizabeth (Betsey) MAY b: Abt. 1790 Washington Co., N.C., in the Watauga River Valley d: 1884 Remlap, Blount Co., Ala., buried in the Remlap Cemetery. +James W.
