I have just learned that the father of my Jane White Millikan of North Carolina (her husband was born 1720) was probably Alexander White of Chester County, Pennsylvania. Any information out there on Alexander White who would have had children born in the early 1700's? >> Hi, Nadine, The will abstract below might be helpful to you. The name Jean and Jane appear to have been interchangeable in the 18th century. This Jean/Jane was Alexander White's wife. Do you think she might have married Mr. Millikan and gone south?
