Biography

Please do not reconnect Jonathan White as father.

"The authors found no evidence to support the claim of Roscoe R. White in White Family Record (1939) pp 22-5, that onathan White m. 8 Aug 1708 Margaret Elizabeth Alexander, b. Ca. 1670 and had 2 children: Alexandr b. 8 Sept. 1709, and Margaret. Alexander is said to have d. Greenwich NJ in Sept. 17767 having had 10 children, including one name Peregrine. When Roscoe White submitted this lineage to the Mayflower Society, the only evidence offered was a record in a family Bible printed in 1870, with all entries in the same hand. The Society does not accept this lineage."^[1]

Allegedly Margaret White was born c. 1712 Barnstable, Barnstable, Massachusetts to Jonathon White and Margaret Elizabeth Alexander White. Nothing else is known of her.
