Hello! I came across the following item in the September 14, 1887 newspaper (on microfilm) called THE ESCAMBIA AND BALDWIN TIMES. It states: "Mr. John White living up Burnt-corn creek informs us that one day last week he killed an alligator seven feet in length, one rattlesnake................" I was wondering if this could be John A. WHITE who was born at South Carolina in the 1820's (most likely) and migrated to Southwestern Alabama. The John White I am searching for married Eliza A. HART and they were the parents of Jehaza WHITE Kitchen. If you are researching John Whites of Southwestern Alabama, I hope you will get in touch- thanks! Patricia
Good evening, My name is Rebecca Bannister. I am a descendant of John White. (Could there be a harder name to research? John Smith or John Doe perhaps??!!!) John was born in North Carolina between 1810 and 1813 based on census records. He probably lived in South Carolina for a time - but I'm not certain of this. From the Carolinas, the family settled first in Hall County, Georgia and finally Pickens County, Georgia. I have encountered conflicting information concerning his wife/wives. Some researchers say he was married to two different women with the last name Pendley, first Jane Pendley, then Anne. Other researchers only list Jane, who was also born in North Carolina in 1823. John's children were: Ira White - about 1848 Steve White - about 1849 Alonzo White - 1851 Martha White - 1854 Jesse White - 1856 Webster White - 1861 I would love to hear from anyone else researching this line. I am a descendant of Jesse White through his son, James. I've really hit a brick wall when it comes to my White line since I don't know where in North Carolina John was born. In the 1880 census, both his parents' birthplaces were listed as North Carolina as well. Happy Hunting! Rebecca Bannister <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] [email protected]

Hi Allen & fellow researchers, If there is any possibility that your Gen research could have any connection to this body (11 books) of Genealogical research: ("Scotland, to Londonderry-Donegal in Ulster, to Pennsylvania, the valley of Virginia, east Tennessee and points west", etc), this could be a VERY significant opportunity.

Marsha, I find in our family history book, that John White was govenor of Roahoke. I believe that is in Virginia. If so, that would make the answer to your question a yes. The John White I refer to, is the father of a Virgnia Dare. Does this help, or did you already have an answer? Paul P.

THE CONNAUGHT JOURNAL Galway,Thursday, April 8, 1824 WILL OF LUKE WHITE, ESQ. (From the Weekly Globe) The remains of this Gentleman, one of the Representatives for the county of Leitrim, who lately died at his house Park-lane, have been conveyed to Dublin for interment. His property amounted to 30,000l. a year real estate, and 100,000l. in money and securities. This, which remained after the enormous sum of 200,000l. expended upon election, he has bequeathed by will as follows: To his eldest son, Colonel Thomas White, of Woodlands, county of Dublin, who, in 1819 married Juliana, daughter of Viscount Gort, 5,000l. a year. This includes the estate of Buttvell's town, (now Woodlands) near Dublin, purchased from the late Earl of Carhampton, for a sum of 100,000l. To his second son, married to Miss Rothe, 7,000l. a year. To his third son, not married, 4,500l. a year. To his fourth son, Colonel Henry White, not married, the present Representative for the county of Dublin, 13,000l. a year. To his son, by his second wife, 500l. a year for a certain time, and then 10,000 in lieu of that annuity. To his three daughters, 10,000l. each. The marriage settlement on his widow is 1,000l. a year. It is said that his eldest son offended him by refusing to offer himself a candidate for Dublin, with a promise to support the Catholic cause. Mr. White was the artist of his own fortune.- He began his career in Dublin sale clerk to a Mr. Valence, an eminent book auctioneer-then became a bookseller, and afterwards a lottery office keeper. In this latter line he is supposed to have acquired a considerable part of his wealth. When Mr. Corry was Chancellor of the Exchequer for Ireland; Mr. White became the contractor of the Irish loan, on which he paid instalments to the amount of 75,000l. which he forfeited, having thought fit to decline the completion of his bargain. At a critical period of his country, when the public money was exhausted, he came forward and advanced a loan to a considerable amount to Government.

Searching for information concerning John White, born 13 Mar 1702 at Mendon, Worchester, Mass. He married (1) Sarah (maiden name unknown), and (2) Rachel Benson.

Hi there, fellow listers! I am looking for information on Patrick White (1), probably born around 1840-1850 and lived in North Dublin, probably Coolock, Donnycarney, Baldoyle or Howth area. He was a labourer. Patrick had a son, also called Patrick White (2) and a second son Peter White, whom I believe was a seaman living in Collins Avenue, Donnycarney. Patrick White (2) was a labourer and watchman, born in Tonagee, Coolock 11 February 1871, who married Anastasia Agnes Haberlin 21 February 1897, again in Dublin. Witness at his marriage was a John White. They had 3 children: Bridget White born 17 January 1898, married John Ita McQueen 19 November 1923, died 1986; Patrick White (3) born circa 1899, died circa 1918, and Christina White, born circa 1902, died 24 December 1919. Patrick White (2) died 15 July 1944 in Donnycarney, Dublin. I believe Patrick White (1) s wife lived to be the oldest woman in Howth (at approximately 107 years), and was called Anne (maiden name possibly Fay), according to certificates I have traced so far. I am now seeking further information on Patrick White (1), his wife and family and of course any earlier generations. I would be grateful if anyone has any information or clues on the above. With thanks, Graham Bisset Sutton London UK

Does the following sound familiar to anyone? : Sir Thomas White, English merchant; born. Reading, England, 1492 died Oxford, February 12th, 1567.He engaged in business as a clothier, from 1523 and in 1525 was Master of the Merchant Taylors Company. Increasingly prosperous, he made large loans to Coventry and Bristol, and held Civic office as Alderman (1544) and Sheriff of London (1547).In 1533 he helped to promote the Muscovey Company, and in the same year was elected Lord Mayor, in which office he was of assistance to Mary Stuart on her accession to the throne. Thomas was deeply interested in education. He was one of the founders of the Merchant Taylors School, and in 1560 he founded ST. Johns college, Oxford. This would have been my Maternal ancester, many "G's" back. 73 Paul Plasters On Mon, 10 Nov 2003 12:56:51 -0500 "Barry Wetherington" <[email protected]> writes: > "Gov.
