| Biography* | The parents of Simcock White are unproven. He is assumed to have been a son of William White II, planter, who had other unnamed children when he named only a son William in his verbal will of 1702. In 1713 Simcock White bought part of tract A121 which is White's Neck and was the location of named son William. Simcock not being shown in the Tithable List from 1663 to 1695 could be explained by the fact he would have been underage that he would have been listed with William White II. Since he was not shown on a headright list between 1663 & 1709, he was probably born in the colony. | |
| Birth* | circa 1676 | Simcock was born circa 1676 at Accomack Co, VA. |
| Marriage* | circa 1700 | He married Mary (-----) circa 1700 at Accomack Co, VA.2 |
| Land bought* | 5 September 1713 | Simcock bought land on 5 September 1713 at Accomack Co, VA.

The deed showed it bounded land owned by Thomas Crippen, John Onions, Roger Miles & Samuel Church. It was witnessed by Jno. Johnson & Francis Wharton. When Simcock White died intestate in 1719 he was succeeded by a son Wrixham White (wife Grace who later married Robert Russell), who in died intestate in 1765 leaving a son Hezekiah to succeed him. Then in 1770 Hezekiah White sold 50 acres at the west end to Thomas Hickman, and in his will 8 years later, Hezekiah said that Thomas Hickman was to get 25 acres more, and the residue was to be sold; later in the year his executor sold 50 acres to Ambrose Willett..3,4 |
| Anecdote* | 1717 | Simcock White was on a jury 3 different times: 1 Oct 1717, 6 Oct 1719 & 3 May 1720.5,6 |
