On the back of the foregoing is written in another hand, "proved By His Affirma- tion."
1770, Dec. 12. Will of Amos White, of Deal; proved Dec. 29, 1770, mentioned:
eldest son, Joel White; son, Amos White; daughter, Leah Morris, to have £200; three children of deceased daughter Rachel, viz .: John, Mary and Rachel; daughter, Deborah; daughter, Mary; wife, Esther, to have all the movable estate she brought when I married her. Executors: Friends, John Tucker and Samuel Tucker.
1771, Imo., 9. Joel White, of Deal, conveys to his brother, Amos White, of Deal, all his title to that part of the farm of which his late father, Amos White, died seized, where his said father lived and died, adjoining the sea. Witnesses: Samuel Tucker and William Parker. Recorded Oct. 4, 1806.
1773, 3mo., 8. Esther White conveys one hundred and fifty-seven and a half acres of land, at Wreck Pond, in Shrewsbury, to Edmund Lafetra.

HISTORICAL MISCELLANY
73 Rachel White died prior to 4mo., 9, 1752; married, Oct. 15, 1746, Thomas Woolley, Jr., son of Thomas and Patience (Tucker) Woolley, born Sep. 24, 1725; died 1802.
74 Deborah White married, by license dated Apr. 21, 1758, Joseph Wardell; each of Shrewsbury.
27 LEAH WHITE, daughter of Thomas White, 6, born 1688, according to a pamphlet giving the Tucker genealogy. This is probably based upon a mistaken read- ing of the Quaker records of Shrewsbury, that says she died, 2mo. (Feb.) 18, 1767, aged 78 years, which properly deciphered is 73 not 78 years. This would have made her birth to have occurred about 1694. She married, first, about 1713, (Samuel?), son of William Wilbur, born Feb. 17, 1691; died between 1714 and 1717; second, Oct. 3, 1717, James, son of John and Ruth (Woolley) Tucker, born Aug. 27, 1691; died Sep. 29, 1776.
Thomas White and James Tucker were among the first settlers along the seashore, of the place that is now called Deal, N. J., and it is said that it got its name from the fact that the Whites came from Deal, Kent Co., England; likewise from the Tuckers having come from the same place. At any rate the Tuckers seem to have had an estate here in New Jersey three times as large as that of the Whites, the one having perhaps twenty-five hundred acres to the others eight hundred. And, further, the name was applied to the place at an earlier date than would appear to correspond with the coming of the Tuckers from New England to New Jersey, there being a deed on record at Tren- ton, dated May 12, 1683, in which "Thomas Potter, of Deale, near Shrowesbury, N. J., planter," conveys land in Fenwick's Colony to an inhabitant of Rhode Island.
1710, Oct. I. Leah White is a witness at the marriage of her sister, Rachel, to Isaac Hance.
1714, Oct. 7. Sam Willbur and Leah Willbur are witnesses at the marriage of her sister, Elizabeth, to Thomas Lippincott, they signing together and immediately after Isaac and Rachel Hance.

Uriah was taxed, in 1759, and Valeriah Lippincott, in 1760 and 1768, thus indicating that Uriah probably died in 1759 or 1760.

31 LEVI WHITE, son of Thomas White, 6, died 1784; married, (Mch. 13?), 1733, Ann, probably the daughter of Robert Lippincott. First, as regards the date of her marriage, and then about her parentage. The records of the Quakers, at Shrews- bury, state that Levi White and Ann Lippincott were married, Imo., 13, 1733, which, according to the chronology of that time, would be March and not January. But the minutes of the Mens' Monthly Meeting distinctly declare that their first intentions were published, 9mo. (Nov.), 5, 1733; their second intentions, Iomo. (Dec.) 3, 1733, and that the committee reported, IImo. (Jan.), 7, 1733, that they had been married in an orderly manner. Hence it is evident that their marriage occurred at an earlier date than the records give them credit for, although in the latter part of the year 1733.
These same records also show the following entry: "Thomas & Christian White's son, George White, married Ann, daughter of John Lippincott, whose son Benjamin White, born 12 ["4" in lead pencil] of 12mo., 1755;" etc., etc.
This Benjamin White wrote a memorial of his life, in which he states that he was "born on the 4th day of the 12th months 1755. My father George White son of Thomas

HISTORICAL MISCELLANY
and Christian White, my Mother Anna, daughter of John Lippincott she dying when I was young, I have but a slight remembrance of her."
Plainly the correction in the records for the birth of Benjamin was made from the manuscript. But the confusion arising from the making of the same woman to have been the wife of two different men must be accounted for on other grounds. It has been stated in the genealogy of the Lippincotts that Levi White married Anne the daughter of John and Sarah (Huet) Lippincott; and it has been declared by more than one genealogist that it was George White, son of Thomas and Christian, who married this same Anne Lippincott.
To my mind there is no doubt that George, and not Levi, White married Ann, the daughter of John and Sarah (Huet) Lippincott, because her own grandson, Benjamin White, 98, says she was John's daughter; because George and Ann White name their oldest children, John and Sarah, after the maternal grandparents; and because she would have been only fourteen years of age at the time of her marriage to Levi, if we accept the date as given in the Quaker Records, having, as they, show, been born IImo., 5, 1719/20 .* Furthermore, the signatures of John, Thomas and Jacob Lippincott, as wit- nesses, when Levi and Ann were married, can be readily accounted for as those of her uncle and his two sons, if we suppose her to have been the daughter of Robert Lippincott, mentioned but not named in the will of her grandfather, John Lippincott, whose wife was Ann (Barber), after whom each of these granddaughters received the name of Ann. This John Lippincott, the grandfather, refers to her as "the daughter of my deceased son, Robert Lippincott."
1784, Aug. 4. Will of Levi White, of Shrewsbury; proved Sep. 13, 1784, mentioned:
wife, Ann; son, Thomas, the land where he now lives; son, John White, £100; granddaughter, Phebe; son, Joseph White, to have the remainder of his real estate. Executors: son, Joseph White, and daughter- in-law, Sarah White. Witnesses: Jeremiah Bonham, Jr., David Burk, Timothy Corlies.

*Since writing the above I have consulted the original of the Shrewsbury Quaker Records, and find that the date of birth> IImo., 5, 1719/20, is not applicable to Ann Lippincott at all. Her name is entered, and the place for the date of her birth left vacant. Immediately after her name appears that of another daughter, Sarah Lippincott, born, in Shrewsbury, and with the date of birth as above given, but with a pen mark of erasure carried through all but the date.
