    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iVB.2ACI/748.762.2.1 Message Board Post: NOTE EMAIL CHANGE: [email protected] You're absolutely right about Robert, Ben. I found a deed that confirms it: Deed bk. 36, P.504, Jan. 28, 1835....INTEREST in 114 acres - $150.. Jonathan & Sally Hager, et al to Isaac White (all of Lincoln Co.): Between Wilson White, Jonathan & Sally Hager & Nancy P. White....doth sell Their interest & claim in a tract of land deeded to Robert White, deceased.....in Lincoln Co....on Long Creek....joining lands of John White & Abraham Mauney? Wit: John White & Sally White. Signed: Wilson White, Jonathan Hager & Sally W. Hager. Sally White's siblings were Wilson White, James White, Eliza Jane White (m. Rooker/Rucker). A DAR file lists Jennie Scott as the wife of Robert White, but Presbyterian Church records for the area, Concord Presybtery, show Robert and Nancy White presenting a child for baptism on 28 Nov 1804. A Nancy White who died in 1815, age 37, is buried next to Robert in the Long Creek Cemetery. The 1834 petition of Jane (Jennie?) White, "widow and relict" of Robert White names Nancy P. as a minor. It would appear that Jennie Scott, named in DAR records as a wife, was a second, younger wife of Robert White, probably the mother of minor Nancy P. while the Nancy (d. 1815) buried next to Robert at Long Creek was the mother of the older four children. Now if you could only come up with parents for my mysterious Jonathan Hager! Process of elimination has gotten me nowhere! He was not George Hager's son--but probably a grandson--but by what son???? Jonathan Hager died in Carroll Co. GA May 1862--after being sent home from Richmond. The man had little enough sense to enlist in the CSA when he was 50 years old!
