That is useful info. We were in Portsmouth a few days last summer. I have part of that info--may even have the first ref from the will book, but it is buried in the 100's of pages of stuff we copied and scanned. I'm not certain that Daniel White that stood in for the marriage was Abel's son-- maybe a nephew or brother instead. I think they all show up on the 1890 census at Addison, Steuben County, NY where Abel was one of the pioneering fathers of the community. Seth was there too-- though there are a few Seths in the family I think, so its not too clear to me which is which for sure. Do you see Rachel White appear anywhere? She married Wyatt Searl. Searls and Whites apparently migrated together to the Scioto-Greenup area about the same time. Am I right to assume you are still living in the area there? We noticed the Dan White Hollow rd I think when we were cruising around the area. If we visit again, and assuming you live in that area, it would be fun to compare notes. I imagine you are from the Mary (Polly) line right? Does anyone that you know of still have anything like Bible records?And-- you haven't run into Abel White's grave site have you? Feel free to email if you want- anytime, Vic & Kathy Varis www.ciurlionis.net/varis vic@psu-xa.org
