JONATHAN WHITE OF GRANVILLE COUNTY
Jonathan White was an early settler of Granville County, N.C., a justice of the peace, and in 1748 was one of three commissioners appointed by the General Assembly to choose a location for the Granville County Courthouse. He was a member of the White family of the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth river in Norfolk County, Va. When he died in 1772 he was married to Sarah White. There is deed in Granville County in 1757 from Jonathan White and wife Faith to Ezekiel Fuller. This writer and others had previously identified this person as Jonathan White, Jr. However, a closer examination of the records has shown that a better explanation is that Jonathan White was married first to Faith, and second to Sarah. The following is his will, recorded in Granville County court in August 1772:
Will
I Jonathan White of the County of Granville give to my loving wife Sarah White two Negro girls, Rachael and Abbe, two feather beds and furniture, one bay mare and colt, and one Negro girl Nan during her life. I give to my son Jonathan White 140 acres of land where he now lives. I give to my son Burgess White 140 acres of land where he now lives. I give to my son William White 100 acres of land where he now lives. I give to my son Philemon White 100 acres of land where John Davis now lives, and I desire if my son Philemon die without marriage or lawful heir the 100 acres be sold and the money to be equally divided between all my children living, and it is my desire that all the remainder part of my estate be sold and the money equally divided between all my children, and at the death of my wife Sarah White I desire the Negro girl Nan to be sold and the money to be equally divided between all my children. I appoint my wife Sarah White and Thomas Bradford my executors February 28, 1772. Witnesses: Henery White, Burges White, Jonathan White[1]
