About unknown White

---
Not the same as Capt Nathaniel White


Elizabeth Brewster was born to Francis and Lucretia Brewster in Bristol, England in 1630. Soon after 1654, married _______ White (some say Nathaniel, but provide no evidence.)

Their children included Elizabeth, Mary, and Nathaniel White, all three are mentioned and receive bequests in the 1669 will of their mother Elizabeth's stepfather Thomas Pell.

Their mother Elizabeth is not mentioned in Pell's will, strongly suggesting that she had died before then (before 1669) .[3] [4]


In his 1669 will, Dr. Thomas Pell left legacies to his late wife Lucy’s grandchildren from her first marriage to Doctor Francis Brewster, II (died 1646):

WILLS OF EARLY RESIDENTS OF WESTCHESTER CO., N. Y., 1664-1784. I, Thomas Pell, "In the Name of God, Amen." " Yt hath pleased ye all wise God, for many years to exercise me with much weakness of body, and having lately taken to himself my beloved wife Lucy " I make my nephew John Pell, living in Old England, the only son of my only brother John Pell, Doctor of Divinity, sole heir of all my lands and houses. Mentions "my brother's daughters." Leaves legacies to Abigail wife of Daniel Burr, Francis French, Nathaniel French, Elizabeth White, Nathaniel White, " my ancient maid Katharine Ryster." "I give these poor men their debts, viz. Joseph Patten, James Evens, Tho. Bassett, Roger Percey." Makes Daniel Burr and John Banks, executors. Witnesses. Nathan Gould John Cabell Dated Sept. 21, 1669. Liber i. P. 39. [2]
