Lee Ann Carothers was born April 1, 1864 in McNary county Tennessee. On May 22, 1883 she was united in marriage with J. M. Littlefield in Adamsville, Tenn. and to this union were born 11 children, nine sons and two daughters. One son died in infancy.

In 1884 she moved with her husband to Jones county, Texas where the family lived for 12 years and then returned to Tennessee in 1896. They remained in Tennessee ten years and then moved to Oklahoma in 1906, locating at Fletcher. Since that time the family has resided in or near Fletcher.
At the age of 18 she was converted to the Christian faith and at the age of 20 united with the Missionary Baptist church. In 1907 she united with the First Baptist church of Fletcher where her membership remained until her death.
She lived a very quiet life, being much devoted to her home and her church. Besides a large number of relatives she leaves many friends to mourn her departure.
