My Richard White (b abt 1721) is found with wife Rebekah, in Loudoun Co, Va which at some point is also known as Orange Co, Va. I have tried for years to connect them to the SC Whites. The SC Whites mar into my Keown and Young family in SC abt 1770 to 1800, when many moved to Warren co, Ky and then to Marion Co, Ala by 1834. The Youngs etc are in Chalkley's Augusta Co, Va during the time my Whites are in Loudoun Co.. moving to SC abt 1760. My Whites from Loudoun/Orange Co Va in turn, moved to Overton, Jefferson, Greene C0 and areas of Tn, then to Limestone Co, Ala before settling in Tippah Co, Ms. Which is not far from Marion Co, Ala. My motive for noting the migrations for both families is that my Youngs are definitely placed back to a 1646 massacre of the Clan Lamont at Castle Toward in Scotland. The Chief's wife was a Mary Young, who escaped with her four sons, who took assumed names of Andrew Young, (William?) White, John Sitlington, and Greene. When I learned this, I retraced my steps on the Youngs, and sure enough in the Chalkley's Scotch Irish Chronicles of Augusta Co, Va all the names are found. And everywhere they migrated the names are near each other with many intermarriages. (I even have a Henry White who mar Leah Hide on Feb 15, 1808 in Jefferson Co, Tn. My Whites are there but I cannot connect to this man.) (I also have a record of Henry White who mar an unknown Greene and had a daughter b abt 1850). Could my Richard and your Henry be brothers or cousins or?? Does anyone have collateral connections of Lusk, Turner, McMillan, York (all branchs of Lamont)? My GGGGF White mar a Deborah York b 1804 in Randolph Co, NC. And my own GF White mar a McMillan in Hill Co, Tx abt 1880. This seems to indicate some kind of connection as they did tend to migrate together. But since they all named their sons the same names, I can't find anything concrete to tie the Whites back to Wm White and Clan Lamont. Wish someone else could think this was a viable research route. Other collateral names to my Loudoun Co, Va Whites are Coltharp, Haworth, Nixon, Janney, Hale, Byler, Keys, Maurice, Munday.
