NJ 1776 - son of Jonathan White and 2nd wife Margaret Elizabeth Alexander. During my 20 years of genealogical research, the above lineage seems to be the most misunderstood sequence that I have found. Roscoe White in his book WHITE FAMILY RECORDS spells it our clearly. Roscoe did provide documentation supporting that lineage. The Mayflower Society has chosen to not accept the documentation provided by Roscoe. That is their prerogative. However, 100% of the members of the Mayflower Society that I have talked with, and 100% of the genealogists that I have talked with having knowledge of the point of controversy agree that Roscoe was right. Not one person said that Roscoe was not correct. There is a difference between refusing to accept documentation and saying that the lineage was not correct. Really now, after all these years, does anyone really feel that additional documentation will be found?? Dex White [email protected]

    3. There was a book written about my White line as well that went back to Peregrine, but because I haven't found other documentation, it isn't accepted either. ----- Original Message ----- From: eleven To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, January 27, 2004 4:05 PM Subject: [WHITE] Point of controversy William White (THE PILGRIM) d. 1621 in MA Peregrine White b.

    3. Ian, Your query is at the roots (clever eh?) of what Genealogists do: "With the current wide use of the Internet, can anyone now throw any light which will allow the Americans to discover the ancestry of William WHITE, one of their nation's founders? Wouldn't it be great if he was on your family tree? " FYI, the same issue interested me in another White, John WHITE, who was a founder of the FIRST Anglo settlement of the US, at Jamestown in 1587ish, where the FIRST American citizen, Virginia DARE, was born to Eleanor (DARE) WHITE, w/o Ananias Dare, d/o John WHITE, appointed by Sir Walter Raleigh to lead the founding settlement, which became known as the Lost Colony. I am a Dare. Below are some online Gen sites avail to all for such discovery searches. However, the UK is still somewhat provincial, in that many of the best records are only avail to those who show up in person - NEVERTHELESS, there are some EXcellent free online resources and some other quasi-free (locate the info free then pay small money to access/ download) databases.

    1. [WHITE] Ancestors of Carrie B. White
    2. Jack Pennybacker
    3. It has been some time since I posted this inquiry. I'm hoping someone with the information has joined the group since then. I am looking for the ancestors of a CARRIE B. WHITE, my grandmother. She was born Jan. 15, 1873 & married John J. Pennybacker in VA, July 25, 1900. Her father was a MEADE FITZHUGH WHITE (1847-1898) & her mother, ELLIE FITZHUGH DONAGHE (1854-1926). Her p. grandfather was HAMDEN A. WHITE (1812-1888) & her g. mother, CAROLINE BATTAILE FITZHUGH (1811-1852). I have been able to trace the Fitzhugh line back to the 17th century in Bedford, England, but HAMDEN A. WHITE represents a dead-end of many years. Does it look familiar to any of you?

    1. RE: [WHITE] Re: [HILL-L] DNA question.
    2. Nancy Custer
    3. Jay, the DNA testing used for the surname projects that are popping up all over the genealogy world is confined to the Y chromosome of which every male has one and only one which he received from his father who received his from his father and so on up the paternal line. Thus the Y chromosome is handed down in the same way as the surname (in most cultures anyway.) With this in mind, I'm sure you can see that you can only get information about one line from your Y chromosome test--in your case, you Hill line. Unfortunately for the genealogist, the Y chromosome is unique in that it is passed down from father to son virtually unchanged. All of the other chromosomes (including the X chromosome of which females have two) mix and blend together in such a way that they are a mix of all ancestral lines and cannot be used to pinpoint ancestral origins. I am a biologist and taught biology for many years. I have a set of pages about the basics of DNA and how it can be used for genealogy at http://www.contexo.info/DNA_Basics/molecular_genealogy.htm . I see on Kevin Duernick's list of surname projects http://www.duerinck.com/surname.html there is a Hill project at Family Tree DNA. There is also a White project but no website is given though there is a contact email address. Perhaps it has been announced on this list and I missed it?? Unfortunately I come from a line of Whites who "daughtered out". One thing on my "to do" list is to try to find a male descendent of my White line for testing. I was the first daughter in a line of the oldest son of the oldest son. . . . for seven generations before me. And, alas, my only sibling is a sister. We are descendents of Thomas and Margaret March White who immigrated from the North Riding of Yorkshire in 1846. Thomas was the son of John and Ruth (Pedletty) White of Kirkby Ravensworth also in the north of Yorkshire--nearly in Durham. If anyone is interested in reading about how our Dorsey/Kelley family use DNA testing to solve an old family mystery, you can see that at http://www.contexo.info/DorseyDNA/HarveyKelley.htm Nancy White Custer > Ok Everybody I have a Question. > > Has anybody been cross scanning the DNA results between differant familes. > > Like on my dad's side is HILL, JACKSON, WHITE, SPEAKS, YANCEY, ..... + > > And my Mom's is ATKINSON, BAUMANN, DEAN/DANE, REDDICK, VICK,....+ > > What I mean is if I did a test for Hill I could also use it for Jackson > line > and so on? > Or are they going to charge you for another test that's not needed? > > Just wondering because it could open alot of doors if you did. > > Jay > > *************************************************

    2. Barry Wetherington
    3. Thanks for your reply and the Gen outline Paul, So far, Chuck Gleason hasn't replied, but I am still most interested in the early Whites, particularly in the John White era of the late 1500s. I would be very appreciative of your direct line w/ or w/o siblings. Do you believe your White books are either the ones mentioned by Chuck Gleason (back throught 1087, etc) or the EBay books mentioned below? I also have the colorful John White Arms bestowed on him by Sir Walter Raleigh, which I'll be pleased to email you as an attachment if you wish. If you would consider, I would also send you a check which you could deposit to hold as a deposit for safe return of the Richard White books, and of course, I'll also send you whatever I am able to connect up. If you are the descendant of John White, the father of Eleanor White md Ananis Dare abt 1580s, the parents of Virginia Dare, first citizen of America, then your dna might be found in any descendant of Virginia Dare. A descendant of Virginia Dare would, in my opinion, be 'most likely' related to the 'tribe(s)' of Native Americans who assisted the Lost Colony, one of which could well be the Croatans. Thus, if we stretch this as thin as necessary, and if dna identification technology develops in the future as quickly as it is developing now, eventually, we could identify descendants of the Lost Colony, including potentially, and theoretically, the descendants of America's first citizen, Virginia Dare. A tall order, to be sure, but, as they say, 'Dare to Dream' !

Did you get the information you sought? I am a descendant of the John White you spoke of. My direct line of descent has been proven, even into England and "beyond". I do have a couple of books written by Richard White, not a real lot of information in them about "every day" life, but it does list the line of descent, but leaves out most of the "siblings" in the line. 73 Paul Plasters Grandson of Bonnie Clare White.

Article XXVIII. Gloucester, the Residence of Powhatan and Pocahontas. We are now in the region where by general consent the chief residence of King Powhatan has been placed, after discussion and accurate investigation. Mr. Howe, in his laborious though sometimes inaccurate History of Virginia, quotes from Captain John Smith as saying that "twenty-five miles lower (than what is now West Point, the junction of the Pamunkey and Mattapony) on the north side of this river (York River) is Werowocomico, where their great king inhabited when I was delivered to him a prisoner," and where Smith in another place says "for the most part he was resident." Mr. Howe says, "Upon a short visit made to that part of Gloucester county a year or two ago, I was satisfied that Shelly, the seat of Mrs. Mann Page, is the famous Werowocomico. Shelly adjoins Rosewell, formerly the seat of John Page, (sometime Governor of Virginia), and was originally part of the Rosewell plantation; and I learned from Mrs. Page, of Shelly, that Governor Page always held Shelly to be the ancient Werowocomico, and accordingly he at first gave it that name, but afterward, on account of the inconvenient length of the word, dropped it and adopted the title of Shelly, on account of the extraordinary accumulation of shells found there. The enormous beds of oyster-shells deposited there, especially in front of the Shelly House, indicate it to have been a place of great resort among the natives. The situation is highly picturesque and beautiful; and, looking as it does on the lovely and majestic York, it would seem of all others to have been the befitting residence of the lordly Powhatan." Our worthy fellow-citizen, Mr. Charles Campbell, of Petersburg, after having adopted the above opinion, has renounced it in favour of another place only two or three miles, I believe, lower down York River. On paying a visit a few years since to Shelly and the neighbourhood, for the purpose of examining the question, he became satisfied that Timberneck Bay, in Gloucester, the ancient seat of the Manns, only a mile from Shelly, is the famous spot. Smith, he says, in his work "Newes from Virginia," says "the bay where Powhatan dwelleth hath three creeks in it." "I have visited," says Mr. Campbell, "that part of Gloucester county, and am satisfied that Timberneck Bay is the one referred to by Mr. Smith. On the east bank of this bay stands an old chimney known as 'Powhatan's chimney,' and its site corresponds with Werowocomico as laid down in Smith's map." Mr. Campbell supposes this to be the chimney of the house built by the Colonists to propitiate the favour of Powhatan, and says he is supported by tradition. May not the two opinions be reconciled in the following manner? Shelly may have been the original place of his residence or of his frequent residence; but when it was offered to build him a house after the English fashion, he may have preferred a situation a few miles off, for reasons best known to his royal majesty. And now, although I have already introduced some documents touching Powhatan and Pocahontas into my article on Jamestown and Henrico, yet, as there is another most worthy of preservation and use, I will do my part toward its perpetuity by inserting it in this place. It is the famous letter of Captain Smith to Queen Anne, soliciting her attention to Pocahontas when in England,--a letter not easily surpassed by any one in any age. "To the Most High and Virtuous Princess, Queen Anne, of Great Britain:* "Most Admired Madam:--The love I bear my God, my King, and my Church, hath so often emboldened me in the worst of extreme dangers, that now honesty doth constrain me to presume thus far beyond myself, to present to your Majesty this short discourse. If ingratitude be a deadly poison to all honest virtues, I must be guilty of that crime if I should omit any means to be thankful. So it was, that about ten years ago, being in Virginia, and being taken prisoner by the power of Powhatan, their chief king, I received from this great savage exceeding great courtesy,--especially from his son, Nantiquaus, the manliest, comeliest, boldest spirit I ever saw in a savage, and his sister Pocahontas, the king's most dear and beloved daughter, being but a child of twelve or thirteen years of age, whose compassionate, pitiful heart of my desperate estate gave me much cause to respect her. I being the first Christian this proud king and his grim attendants ever saw, and thus enthralled in their power, I cannot say I felt the least occasion of want that was in the power of those, my mortal foes, to prevent, notwithstanding all their threats. After some six weeks' fattening among these savage courtiers, at the minute of my execution she hazarded the beating out of her own brains to save mine; and not only that, but so prevailed with her father that I was safely conducted to Jamestown, where I found about eight-and-thirty miserable, poor, and sick creatures to keep possession of all those large territories in Virginia. Such was the weakness of this poor Commonwealth, as had not the savages fed us, we directly had starved. And this relief, most gracious Queen, was commonly brought us by the Lady Pocahontas. "Notwithstanding all those passages, when inconstant fortune turned our peace to war, this tender virgin would still not spare to dare to visit us; and by her our fears have been often appeased and our wants still supplied. Were it the policy of her father thus to employ her, or the ordinance of God thus to make her his instrument, or her extraordinary affection to our nation, I know not. But of this I am sure; when her father, with the utmost of his policy and power, sought to surprise me, having but eighteen with me, the dark night could not affright her from coming through the irksome woods, and, with watered eyes, gave me intelligence with her best advice to escape his fury, which had he seen, he had surely slain her. "Jamestown, with her wild train, she as freely visited as her father's habitation; and during the time of two or three years, she, next under God, was still the instrument to preserve this Colony from death, famine, and utter confusion, which in those times had once been dissolved, Virginia might have lain as it was at our first arrival till this day. Since then this business, having been turned and varied by many accidents from what I left it, is most certain; after a long and troublesome war, since my departure, betwixt her father and our Colony, all which time she was not heard of. About two years after, she herself was taken prisoner, being so detained near two years longer; the Colony by that means was relieved, peace concluded, and at last, rejecting her barbarous condition, she was married to an English gentleman, the first Virginian who ever spake English, or had a child in marriage by an Englishman,--a matter surely, if my meaning be truly considered and well understood, well worthy a prince's information. Thus, most gracious lady, I have related to your Majesty what, at your best leisure, our approved histories will recount to you at large, as done in your Majesty's life. And, however this might be presented you from a more worthy pen, it cannot from a more honest heart. "As yet, I never begged any thing of the State; and it is my want of ability and her exceeding deserts, your birth, means, and authority, her birth, virtue, want, and simplicity, doth make me thus bold humbly to beseech your Majesty to take this knowledge of her, though it be from one so unworthy to be the reporter as myself, her husband's estate not being able to make her fit to attend your Majesty. The most and least I can do is to tell you this, and the rather of her being of so great a spirit, however her stature. If she should not be well received, seeing this kingdom may rightly have a kingdom by her means, her present love to us and Christianity might turn to such scorn and fury as to divert all this good to the worst of evil; when, finding that so great a Queen should do her more honour than she imagines, for having been kind to her subjects and servants, would so ravish her with content as to endear her dearest blood to effect that your Majesty and all the King's most honest subjects most earnestly desire. And so I humbly kiss your gracious hands, &c. "Signed, John Smith." son of Dashing Stream + Scent Flower 2nd wife of Wahunsonacock Powhatan: m. Winganuske 3rd wife of Wahunsonacock Powhatan: m.
