John White1

| Birth* | after 14 April 1679 | John White was born after 14 April 1679 at Worcester Co, MD.1 |
| Will - Father's* | 1 June 1685 | John was named in his father's will on 1 June 1685 at Pocomoke Hundred, Som Co, MD. In his will John White, Pocomoke, Somerset Co, MD, gave to eld. son William and hrs., 800 A., part of "Buckingham" and 500 A., part of "Partner's Choice." To 2nd son Stevens and hrs., "Coldicott" at decease of wife Sarah. To 3rd son John, eld. dau. Eliza:, young, dau. Sarah, and their hrs., 700 A., residue of "Buckingham" and 650 A. of "Unity (adjoining thereto);" should any die without issue, survivor or survivors to inherit deceased's portion. To daus.

To wife Sarah, execx., residue of afsd. land, "Partner's Choice," and 1/2 of residue of estate, real and personal. Witt: Eliza: Stevens, Robt. Paine, Henry Ayres, Jno. Vigerous, Edmund Harwood..2,3 |
| Death* | | He died at Somerset Co, MD. Based on the fact that he was called the 3rd son in the will of his father William White, wife Sarah, he was born after the 2nd son Stevens, thus born after 14 Apr 1679, making him too young to be the John White who married Alice Minshall. Also, he and his sisters Elizabeth & Sarah were given 700 acres being the residue of tract Buckingham and the 650 acre tract Unity, adjoining thereto, and should any die without issue, the survivors were to inherit the dec'd portion. Since the Rent Rolls of 1666-1723 showed tract Buckingham was possessed by Francis Thorogood, who married his sister Elizabeth and William Massey, who married his sister Sarah, he evidently had died and his sisters had inherited his share of this tract. The tract Unity was willed by his sister Sarah's husband William Massey to their son William & daughter Sarah in 1710 and in 1740 Francis Thorogood Drummond, eldest son of Rose Drummond, who was the only daughter of his sister Elizabeth White, sold 600 acres of this tract to William Fassitt. So again he had evidently died and his sisters had inherited his share of this tract.4 |

Note: The following is a Bill of Complaint, the first step of instituting a chancery cause of action. It outlines the complaint of the plaintiffs Douglas and West against the defendant Gilchrist. In chancery, plaintiffs may also be referred to as "complainants" or "orators."
In the Chancery Court for Virginia George Douglas and Charles West vs Andrew Gilchrist
Accomack to wit To the Worshipful the Justices of the County aforesaid in Chancery Humbly complaining show to your Worships your Orators Charles West and George Douglas that a certain James Gibson deceased in his life to wit sometime in the year of our Lord MDCCXLViii [1748] was indebted to the Honorable William Nelson Esq of York Town in this Colony in the sum of thirty four pounds ten shillings and eleven pence half penny current money of Virginia
-- for the payment whereof he about that time gave his bond to the said Nelson in the penal sum of sixty-nine pounds one shilling and eleven pence current money aforesaid
- and the said Gibson having failed payment thereof according to the condition of his said bond the said Nelson brought an action of Debt against him on the said bond returnable to the General Court held in October in the year of our Lord MDCCX
- that the said Gibson was taken by the Sheriff of Accomack on a capias issued against him for that Debt returnable as aforesaid and your Orators at the said Gibson's pressing request and solicitations gave a bail bond for the said Gibson's appearance to answer that suit
-- and your Orators further show that the said Gibson as they verily believe went over about that time in order to pray the Debt as he told your Orators and actually told them at his return that the matter was ended and the said Nelson satisfied which your Orators believing then to be true imagined they were Discharged from their bond for his appearance and that the suit was at an End
-- but so it in truth was may it please your Worships that the said James paid the said Nelson a small part of the Debt and never had any appearance entered in the said suit or action by means whereof the said Nelson recovered a Judgment against the said James and your Orators his bail as of the first day of October General Court in the year of our Lord MDCCX- for the penalty of the bond defeasance Nevertheless on the [sum] of thirty four pounds ten shillings and eleven pence half penny Current money together with interest for the same to be computed after the rate of five (?) per centum per annum from the tenth (?) day of April of MDCCXLViii [1748] - until paid and the costs
-- and your Orators further show that the said James Gibson dyed sometime in the month of February next following your Orators then being ignorant of any Judgment so as aforesaid obtained against them and had no notice thereof till your Orator George in the month of December in the year of our Lord MDCCXLVii [1747] had notice thereof from the said Nelson who by letter then informed your Orator thereof and that the principal and interest then due was ……………. and two hundred and sixteen pounds of Nett _____________ pounds of Tobacco and fifty shillings or five hundred pounds of Tobacco Costs on which your Orators some time afterwards had a Copy of the said Judgment from the Secretary's office and found it to be agreeable to the said Nelson's representation of the affair to your Orators
-- and your Orators further show that Andrew Gilchrist had soon after the said Gibson's death obtained Administration of his Estate in this Court and had appraised and sold a considerable part thereof to satisfy the said Gibson's Debts but was at this time beyond seas in the Kingdom of Great Brittain
- your Orators therefore as soon as the said Gilchrist returned to this Colony applied to him for payment of the said Debt for which they were chargeable to the said Nelson which the said Andrew then and often afterwards and still refuses to satisfy telling your Orators that he hath fully administered the said Gibson's Estate by satisfying Debts due by mortgage on the said Gibson's slaves and personal Estate and other debts of the Intestate but refuses to render a fair account to your Orators of such his Administration alledging that he had fully settled that affair by an account thereof returned to the County Court
-- whereas your Orators insist that as the same William Nelson had recovered a Judgment against the said James Gibson in his life the said Gibson's debts (?) in the hands of his Administrator ought to stand chargeable for that Debt as a Debt due by Judgment and your Orators who must pay that Debt to the said Nelson ought in a Court of Equity to be substituted in the place of the said Nelson and have the same remedy of relief as he might or could have if the Judgment had been obtained against the said James in his life only
-- but your Orators further insist that if the said Gibson's Estate had been fairly Inventoried sold and administered that a considerable sum of money more than appears by the Inventory returned or made by the sales would appear to be due and that there are several things never Inventoried which ought to be aspects of the said James which the said Andrew ought to account for particularly your Orator's charge that the said James long before his death had agreed with an overseer to make a crop with his hand on his plantation who had entered thereon and made a considerable progress in preparing for and putting the plantation in order for a crop with his hands on his plantation in order for a crop
-- that the said Andrew after his Administration continued the Overseer there on the Terms the Intestate had agreed with him to finish a Crop and used the said Gibson's slaves Nab Jamie and Jack, men slaves, and Leah a young Negro woman and three servants to wit Joshua a youth of about eighteen or nineteen years of age, George his brother about two years younger and Keziah a sister also a servant about two years younger than George children of Esther Perkins a free mulatto and who were bound to the said James by order of Accomack County Court that all these servants and slaves worked in the said crops 'till sometime in the month of July following and then Nab Jamie and Leah were sold and the said servants Joshua George and Keziah worked in the said crop until the same was finished and a sufficient number of working oxen and horses of the estate of the said James and ploughs harrows hoes axes and other working utensils of the said James were used in the making a crop of tobacco corn flax sider(?) and other things on the said plantation till sometime in July aforesaid when the cattle oxen horses ploughs and utensils were also sold the crop of corn being then in a great measure finished and the tobacco well advanced
-- and your Orators insist that the said Andrew ought to account with the creditors of the said James the value thereof dedicating reasonable charges of the said Andrew for finishing the said crop after the said sales and the rest of said Orators have been informed that ten pounds was demanded by the heir for rent but the said Andrew has always refused to pay him and sum whatsoever and your Orators further showed that a very large crop of corn tobacco and other things was made on the premises in that year the quantity of in every ____ (?)
-- the said Andrew refuses to discover or make the least allowance to the said Gibson's creditors for the same although the said servants were subject to no mortgage and the money due to creditors who had mortgages on the slaves oxen and working cattle not paid till long after the said sale and the interest running on the sum due till paid all answered out of the assets of the said James wherefore your Orators are advised that as the mortgage creditors are satisfying their full demands this increase or profit grossing from the estate of the said James ought not to be pocketed by the Administrator for his own use but applied to satisfying your Orators their just demands and the just demands of the other creditors of the said James
-- and that it is the constant course practice and rule of Courts of Equity to apply any increase profit or advantage of any deceased's estate that way after reasonable charges and expenses allowed the Administrator
-- and your Orators further showed that the said Andrew hath made unjust charges of money supposed to be paid to your orator George and also to his brothers Executions of mortgages that were overdue or paid by him and also the sum of six pounds thirteen shillings and four pence current money for his trouble after all other charges made which is altogether unreasonable
