Cheryl, If you think that the Lyttle/Little family were Church of Ireland and lived in Lisnaskea, have you searched the local Church of Ireland records? Lisnaskea is one of several churches in the parish of Aghalurcher. It’s baptism, marriage & burial records start in 1804. The records aren’t on-line anywhere so far as I am aware but there is a copy in PRONI (the public record office) in Belfast. A personal visit is required to view them.
Tradition was to marry in the bride’s church after which she’d attend her husband’s. Obviously if they both attended the same church then that was irrelevant but it something to bear in mind if you find the baptisms but no marriages (or vice versa). A small part of the 1821 census for Aghalurcher has survived and is on this website: http://www.census.nationalarchives.ie/search/ I did search it but did not find Samuel or Dorcas. If Samuel was a farmer, and was still in Ireland in 1833 you would expect him to be in the tithe applotment records. There were 2 Samuel Littles listed in the 1833 tithes for Aghalurcher. One lived in Longfield and the other in Augheiter. http://www.irishgenealogyhub.com/fermanagh/tithe-applotment-books/parish-of-aghalurcher.php Going forward to Griffiths Valuation in 1862 there were no Little households listed in Longfield but there were 3 in Agheeghter (Augheiter). No Samuel though. http://www.askaboutireland.ie/griffith-valuation/index.xml?action=nameSearch Your next step is probably to search the Lisnaskea church records.
