1791, January Term of Orphans Court. Thomas White, executor of Thomas White, deceased, "has his accounts allowed."

That Thomas White, 109, left no issue at the time of his death, is proved by the fact that real estate bequeathed to him by his grandfather, which was to revert to the testator's sons, Thomas, 63, and Jacob, 67, if he died childless, is conveyed in Book M,

78 JOSEPH WHITE, son of Levi White, 31, born Aug. 27, 1749; died prior to Oct. 5, 1799; married, Dec. 13, 1770, Sarah, daughter of Ephraim and Constant (White) Parker, 51.


1799, Oct. 5. George Van Pelt, of Shrewsbury, and Elizabeth his wife, convey to Jacob White, also of Shrewsbury, all right, title and interest to the one-sixth interest in the land whereon Joseph White dwelt, by virtue of being one of the heirs of said Joseph White, deceased. Witnesses: Samuel and Elizabeth Brees. This deed, acknowledged as well as signed on the above date, was not recorded until Dec. 24, 1821, the same date for the recording of the next two deeds also.


1809, Jan. 4. Quit claim deed from Joseph Fleming and Lydia, his wife, to her brother, Jacob White, all of Shrewsbury, for her one-sixth interest in the one hundred and sixty-eight acres where Joseph White dwelt. This land is described as being bounded on the south by land of Timothy Corlies, southwesterly by the main road, westerly and southwesterly by John White's lot, and westerly by Thomas White's land.


18II, July 1. John D. Goodrich, of New York, and Sarah, his wife, convey their one- sixth interest in the same land, describing it in the same way, except that Timothy Cor- lies is called "deceased."


The following is an absolutely accurate copy of a paper in the possession of Mrs. John Livingston Conover, of Wickatunk, N. J., which was made March 28th, 1908. The words with aesteriks had lines drawn through them in the original, those in italics were interlined, without any indication as to where they belonged.

It is difficult, if not impossible, rightly to assign the dates of death as given in this document. It was not Joseph White who died in 1812, for his daughter Elizabeth Van Pelt is giving a deed for her share in his property in 1799. It was not the date of death of Lydia, the daughter of Joseph, for she died in 1829. Nor am I at all confident that the date 1819 belongs with Jacob Fleming, it might just as well apply to Stephen from its position in the manuscript.

WHITE OF NEW JERSEY


Issue Charles Tilton Fleming, born July 14, 1815; died Aug. 1, 1894; married, May 6, 1838, Sarah Ann, daughter of William and Jane (Throckmorton) Scott, born Oct. 8, 1817; died Mch. 4, 1896. 138 Sarah White married, Aug. 22, 1809, John D. Goodrich.


Miss Jane White, of Eatontown, N. J., told me verbally, that the following were children, or under 141, grandchildren, of Joseph White, but it does not seem likely, since no one of them joins in deeding the homestead property to Jacob White.


139 William White died, unmarried, while learning his trade.


140 Sidney White died, unmarried, at about the age of forty.


14I Amos White married Ann . *


80 PETER WHITE, son of Amos White, 33, born Aug. 11, (19?), 1746; died Mch. 26, 1798; married Patience, daughter of John and Patience (Allen) Lippincott, born 3mo., 27, 1757, as given in the Quaker Records, in one place, while in another these same give the date as 8th mo., 12, 1757.


1796, Aug. 23. Peter White and Patience, his wife, convey to Hannah Lippincott, widow, and Lydia White, single woman, land that was situated on the Rumson Highway, and also on the Highway from that to the North River, which was evidently the same as was mortgaged, by Amos White, 33, to James Mount, June 2, 1769, and was part of that which had been bequeathed to him by his father, Amos White, 7.


1798, Imo., 27. Will of Peter White, of Shrewsbury; proved June 30, 1798, men- tioned:


wife, Patience; sons and daughters, as named, some of whom were not yet eighteen years of age :- Amos, Mary, Sarah, Hannah, Phebe, Peter, Allen, Elizabeth and Jane. Executors: William Hartshorne, and son, Amos. Witnesses: John White, Mary White, Samuel W. Ten Brook.


1802, Apr. 3. Nicholas Van Brunt, and Addrean (Audria?), his wife, convey to Eseck White, seventy-two and a half acres of land at Rumson, on the north side of the main road from Black Point to the Falls, "which, with more, the said Nicholas Van Brunt claims by virtue of a deed of sale for the executors of Peter White, deceased, dated Mch. 27, 1800."


Issue 142 Amos White born Jan. 15, 1777; married, Oct. 15, 1801, Ann White .* 143 Mary White born Nov. 10, 1778


14312 Jean White born Aug. 1, 1780; died Aug. 5, 1780.


*A careful and painstaking comparison of the names signed as witnesses to the marriage of Amos White and Ann White shows, quite completely, to my mind, at least, that Amos White was the son of Peter and Patience White, and Ann White was probably the daughter of Joseph, 78, and Sarah (Parker) White. In this way the signatures immediately following those of the bride and groom would be accounted for as :-


Sarah White, the mother of the bride.


Patience White, the mother of the groom.


Lydia White, the sister of the bride, who later on married Joseph Fleming.


Hannah White, the sister of the groom, eighteen years old.


Sarah White, the sister of the groom, twenty years old.


Jacob White, the brother of the bride who had married, in 1799, Catharine Howland.


John White, an uncle of the bride.


Nathl. Parker, a relative of the bride's, on the mother's side, who was the granddaughter of a Nathaniel Parker. Catharine White, sister-in-law of the bride.
