Thomas White (son of John White and Margaret Adams) was born about 1800 in Nettlehurst Farm, Beith, Ayrshire, Scotland. I found a birth record for a Thomas White, son of John White and Margaret Adam listed for November 1, 1796 in Beith, Ayrshire, Scotland.
He was the son of John White and Margaret Adams at Nettlehurst Farm, Beith, Ayrshire, Scotland. He was a farmer and married Jane Kirkwood, the daughter of Thomas Kirkwood and Janet Crawford. They had nine children: Margaret, John, Margaret, Janet, Jane, Thomas, Agnes, David, and John. When their first daughter Margaret died in infancy, the second daughter was also named Margaret. Naming thus seems to have been an old Scotch custom. At one time he co-signed a note with a friend. Later when the friend ran out on the note, Thomas forfeited Nettlehurst Farm to satisfy the creditor. Thomas died of cancer at Nettlehurst Farm about 1850 when the youngest son John, was a small boy.
Thomas White and Jane Kirkwood are mentioned in the marriage record of John White (age 60) and Elizabeth Densmore (age 48). John White was born in Scotland in 1843. He married Elizabeth Densmore in 1903 in Leelanau, Michigan.
