Seth White, Jr. who was born in Norton on April 15, 1745 had a brother named James who is my ancestor. Both were in the Revolutionary War. They were living in Westerly, Rhode Island during the war. Seth Jr. then moved to Connecticut and lived there a few years and then got his pension in New York. I will watch for this name and let you know if I can locate the connection between the two families. You may very well be a descendent of Nicholas White who imigrated to the US. But, I question whether you are a direct descent of the Seth White born in Norton in 1745.
