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]
