The Whites I am researching originally came from New York.
Research is currently underway to locate the original White family there.
There was an Abel White in Sullivan, Madison County, who had a son Samuel's age and the Abel White family lived next door to a Yates family there. We are in the process of trying to find the children of the Yates family to try and verify the existence of Thomas and Martha. This page will be updated as soon as any new discoveries are found. If you think that any of these people may be related in some way, just click on Jan White to send me an email. Rhoda Stevens, Samuel's first wife died on her 30th birthday.
