Not having the full history and story here, this is probably not worth much. But I have a Phebey White, born abt 1804 NC (prob Randolph Co area) who was left a widow in Limestone Co, Ala in 1832...(if she was still living...have not had will to read yet). She was actually Phebey Adcock, who mar Absalom White born 1772 Loudoun Co, Va. He died 1832. Just a long shot.
