White-1023 and White-25321 appear to represent the same person because: Children are the same, only they were partially listed on each profile.

According to his will " Item: I will that my daughters, Viz. Elizabeth Thornbury, Hannah Walker, Mary Carney, Alice Gosset & Sarah Walker, be paid all the remainder of said estate (after their brothers above mentioned being paid off as above directed) & to be divided in such a manner that Elizabeth Thornbrough and Hannah Walker receive sixteen dollars more than their other sisters, who have already received part of their quota heretofore. So what proof is there that Tabitha was his daughter?
