Theophilus Little

Theophilus Little was an American politician from New Jersey, who served on the Monmouth County, New Jersey Board of Chosen Freeholders.

Little, who previously served on the old Board of Justices and Freeholders as a Justice of the Peace, was elected as a Chosen Freeholder in 1795 to represent Shrewsbury Township, and continued after 1798 on the reconstituted Board of Chosen Freeholders, serving through 1804. At the May 9, 1798 annual reorganization, he was chosen as Director (the first to hold the title in Monmouth County), and served in that capacity for six years before leaving the board.[1]
