Ichabod White, W. 22612 BA-J/MCS
Professor H. Adelbert White University of Nebraska Lincoln, Nebraska
Dear Sir:
The data which follow were obtained from papers on file in the pension claim, W. 22612, based upon the military service of Ichabod W White.
The date and place of his birth and the names of his parents were not given.
While living in Petersburg, Rensselaer County, New York, Ichabod White enlisted in April, 1777, and served until February, 1778, as private in Captain Isaac Warren's company in Colonel Bailey's Massachusetts regiment and was in the battle and at the capture of General Burgoyne in October, 1777.
Ichabod White married in October, 1784, Rhoda Hoag at the home of her father (name not given) in New Canaan (later called Lebanon) Columbia County, New York.
Ichabod White died March 10, 1813.
His widow, Rhoda, was allowed pension on her application executed February 22, 1839, while living in Sergeant Township, McKean County, Pennsylvania, aged eighty years.
She was living in Sergeant Township in 1844. In April, 1845, she was living in Norwich, Chenango County, New York, and stated that she had lately moved from Pennsylvania and that she had two daughters (names not given) living in Norwich. She was living in Norwich in 1848.

In 1839 the soldier's brothers, William White aged seventy-five years and Henry White aged eighty-five years, were living in Preble, Cortland County, New York. The widow's brother's, Daniel and Ezra Hoag, were living in 1839. One Thomas Snow, resident of Norwich, New York, in 1845, stated that he was the widow's son-in-law.
There are no further data relative to the family of Ichabod White.

Dear Sir:
Reference is made to your letter of December 19, 1937, requesting information relative to Revolutionary War soldiers, Ichabod White, John White, S. 11770, William White, S. 23485, and a William White who lived at Bainbridge, New York, late in life.
A careful survey of the papers on file in pension claims of John White, S. 11770, and William White, S. 23485, fails to show any information relative to these soldiers being related to each other.
You are furnished herewith, the record of Ichabod White, W. 22612, and the record of the only William White who was pensioned while living in Bainbridge, New York, that is found in the Revolutionary War records of this office.
There is no record of a William V. White.

Mr. A. D. Hiller Veterans Administration Washington, D. C.
Dear Mr. Hiller:
Please accept my thanks for your notations as to William White, a soldier of the Massachusetts line who lived later in Chanango County and finally in Cortland County, New York.
One name in the data sent aroused my curiosity further. It is that of Ichabod White, his brother. I believe I have information as to the Henry White, who was a second brother, and who died in Onondaga County, New York, and is said to be buried west of Tully Lakes. (See W. M. Beauchamp's Soldiers who Died or L ived in Onondaga County.)
You also sent me once before some data on John White, another soldier from Massachusetts who lived at Pittsfield, Otsego County, and is now buried at Garrattsville cemetery not far away. He died in 1843.
It seems to me that this John White is somehow related to the William of Chenango and Cortland Counties, - William White BA J/MCS S.23458 of your letter to me under date of December 11.
Can you confirm this statement from anything in the papers of any of these men?
I am also sending you a notation on another William White, who was long a pensioner, and who lived at Bainbridge, New York, late in life. Somehow also I think these two Williams have been confused in some of the records. Perhaps his pension record which you may possess there in the files might assist me greatly in untangling a very knotty problem.
Perhaps I might add that I am not a professional genealogist and these records are to assist me in tracing a certain William White said by some to have died in 1838. Yet the William claimed as the brother of my great grandfather is said to have been the man who died in Grove Twp., Allegany County, N. Y., in 1838. I believe that, if there was a William White in our family, he was one of those named in your own records, and not the Allegany County William.
I am very sorry to trouble you once more, and, believe me, I am most grateful for your interesting and valuable data.
Sincerely yours,
H. Adlbert
