Jean, I am wondering if perhaps the Ambrose White who you mentioned above could have been the progenitor of the Hanover White line? James White, Sr. was charged with the tax on James White, Jr. and Ambrose White in 1782. I wonder if the Ambrose White who patented land in Northumberland County and Accomack County were the same individual? I find the following land patents in the name of Ambrose White: 22 September 1671. Location: Northumberland County.Description: 1300 acres near Pungeteage, bounded westerly... by a dividend of land... formerly pattented by Nicholas Waddiloe...[i.e., Welilow]. 25 March 1672. Location: Northumberland County. Description: 2150 acres at Matompkin on the seaboard side, adjoining a 600 acre tract of land of John Baggwells. 11 November 1672. Location: Accomack County. Description: 450 acres between the land of Onahannock and Mackepungo. 28 September 1674. Location: Accomack County. Description: 2000 acres comforts quart.d.
