William White (THE PILGRIM) d. 1621 in MA Peregrine White b. On the Mayflower in Cape Cod Bay - Nov 1620 Jonathan White b. MA 1659 - son of Peregrine Alexander White b. MA 1709 D. 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]

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.
