As many of you are aware, I have had the JOY of locating the parents names of my Rev War soldier, William White, who stated in his RW pension application that he was born Jan 10, 1755 " at Fauquier Co VA", even though it was officially still called Prince Wm. Co until 1759. Now, I am enjoying this puzzle of locating his grandparents, etc. I have read books about Lancaster Co VA families and noticed that so many of those surnames appear later in Fauquier Co records. I suggest those who of you who are still searching for parentage too, take a look at Lancaster Co records. I have found postings about White's living in Lancaster Co VA of interest to me. Wondering if any of you have knowledge of these White's to share with me. I have not proved any of this information. Just fishing.
