Please forgive me for the mulitply postings but someone out there has to be related to this bunch. I will attempt to do this again. I don't know how old my James WHITE was when he died in 1846 only that he died in Hampshire County m. to an Elizabeth ROBINSON WHITE b. approx. 1814. I don't know if she was his first, second or third wife. I know Elizabeth White didn't get to keep the property. I know a John ROBINSON and Elizabeth WHITE posted $200 bond for the children. I know John ROBINSON had a son Isaac and is listed on the 1850 census. Children from this marriage on the 1850 Hampshire County Census with Elizabeth WHITE ca. b. 1814 with a William and Lucinda ROBINSON living with her. Isaac.b. 1836 Sarah C. b. 1837 Mary E. b. 1839 Luke b. 1841 Virginia b. 1843 Isaac is my ggrandfather and he married Margaret JACOBS 1860 in Miami County, Ohio Children Mary C. b. 1862 d. 1894 Ella B. b. 1865 m. William H. KNIGHT Charles E.b. 1867 m.Mamie THRASHER Anna A. b. 1870 who married Charles E. POLING in Clark Co.

Agusta M. PENTRUP Martha Gertrude b. 1894 m. Albert WINTROP Isaac died in Clark County, Ohio and is buried in Enon Cemtery, Clark County, Ohio. All his second family were born in Clark County. There is suppose to be some family in Champaign County, Ohio and I was told his name was Joesph. Seems there is a Columbus, Franklin County connection to this family. That may be only because Jesse Melvin WHITE, my grandfather put children in a home there. But he was in Columbus in 1908 at 51 Rich Street also. Jesse left approx.late 1908 and he has been missing 102 years and frankly I am tired of him. I think it is time for him to meet this granddaughter he never knew he had. ;-) I corresponded with the Culture and History in WV and she wondered if my line would go back to Isaac White, the bold mountain man. "Shenandoah Valley Pioneers & Their Descendants" (Cartmell) On the 1840 Census for Hampshire there is a James White Sr. and a James White. Sorry for the long post. Tootsie
