I believe that the following Robert White was a son of Robert White, 10, and grand- son of Robert White, 2, and Frances (Stanley), his wife. But I have nothing to show in corroboration; and I have also under the miscellaneous notes suggested that Robert, the son of Robert White, 10, was the father of another group of children. Which of these deductions is correct it is impossible to tell.
