From the "Ancestry & Descendents of William White" by Lucinda Six-Kinley:
Page 6: "... 1. FITZGERALD: Otho, or Other, a rich and powerful lord
in the time of King Alfred, descended from the dukes of Tuscany, a baron of
England, according to Sir William Dugdale, in the 16th year of KING EDWARD THE
CONFESSOR, ..."
---------------------------------
From the "Ancestry & Descendents of William White" by Lucinda Six-Kinley:
Pages 1-5: "Where did the name WHITE originate? The name White has
been distributed over the greater part of England but relatively infrequent in
the extreme north and in most of the Eastern Counties. Families mostly crowded
together in the Southwest and in the Midlands.
The Southwest of England is, however, the principle home of the name
White. The counties of Devonshire, Somerset, Dorset, Wiets and Hants are
especially remarkable for the number of Whites. Derbyshire and Worchestershire
are the chief centers of the Midland Whites but the name is also well
represented in Warwichshire, Bucks, Golucestershire, and Oxfordshire.
There would appear to be also secondary centers in the North and East
Ridings and in Kent. Although used comparatively infrequent in the extreme
north of England, it has established itself in fair numbers in Scotland, south
of the Forth and the Clyde, and there the Whytes have their home. Whytes are
half as numerous as the Whites. It is probably in the majority of cases, that
the name is derived from the Anglo Saxon "hwit" referring to fairness of
complexion and in fact, we find it Latinized as Allius in the Hundred Rolls of
six centuries ago.
It should not be forgotten, as Lower also points out, that it may in
some instances have taken its origin from the Anglo Saxon "Hwita" an armorer or
swordsmith of Canutes time. White comes from "Hwita" (the white fair) an
ancient English baptismal name of Saxon origin. Hwita originally indicated a
person of light, fair complexion.
In a document dated 1024, we find "Tovi Hwita" (Tovi the White). White
is sometimes a shortened form of Whiting.
White is also Anglicized from the German Weiss (White) or from the
French Blanch and Blanchard. In Middle English, the Old English Hwita becomes
Wyte, usually written "Lewyte".
The Middle English Wiht (brave) may be another source of White. The
names Wynn, Winn, Wynne are all Welsh cognates of White when not Wynne are all
Welsh cognates of White when not from the Old English Wyn meaning "friend
protector". (a portion of HIstorical Sketches - The Name White - written by C.
E. Allen and published in The Taylorsville Times, North Carolina - Jan 9,
1975).
If you are to ask a White his nationality, he or she may well say
Scotch, Irish, English, Welsh, German, or French and all be correct depending
on how far they have traced the ancestry.
Rev. Walter White, Columbia City, Indiana stated the following in his
White Family History.
"In tracing down our White Family, one of our senior members, Sherman
Rittenhouse of Peru, Indiana gave me a valuable clue. He recalled the
nationality of his grandparents ancestors. The family is Scotch-Irish. This
is to say (Richard) Elisha White's ancestry is Scotch, while his wife; Nancy M.
(Clay) White, is descended from the Irish.
Scotland is a very interesting country. Its' history is made up of the
history of its' clans. (a clan being the same as a family). Of all the clans
in Scotland, there are only two which have a Sept by the name of White and they
are the MacGregor clan and the Lamont clan.
The term "Sept", refers to a direct line of descendents of a clan that,
for some reason or other, no longer have the last name of the clan.
A little history about these two clans is in order: The MacGregor clan
traces itself back to King Alpin, King of Seats. He ruled about 787 A.D.
The clan claims descent from this King through his third son: Gregor.
Their crest is; a lions head rased, crowned with an antique crown proper.
Motto; Royal is my Line, Pipe Music; The Chase of Glen Furin.
In the reign of King James VI, clan Gregor was forbidden to use its'
name, because they felt that even being able to have their name gave them too
much power. The MacGregor held their land by the sword. The Campbell clan was
always trying to get the MacGregor and the Lamonts land away from them. In
turn, make it look like they, and not the Campbells were breaking the trust.
The Whites got their name because the MacGregor and the Lamont clan
were threatened with death if they did not stop using their name.
For the most part, the Campbells were the greatest danger. If they
found anyone with those names they would kill them. The law was not as
effective as the Campbells, in taking away their powers, as well as their land.
A typical example of how some of the new names were formed is: a few
of the MacGregor clan were running for thier lives, with some Campbells after
them. They reached a river that carried the name of Dochart. In doing so,
they were able to swim across. This saved their lives and greatful for the
river, they took on the last name of Dochart.
Thus, some started using as their last name Black; others, White, etc.
In this way they were more able to travel a field, fearing less, and encounter
with an enemy.
After the Campbells destroyed the famous Toward Castle, of the Lamont
clan, they sought a peace conference. They demanded that both sides come to
the talks unarmed. One side did, the clan Lamont. Two hundred of the clan,
including 36 of the clans special Gentleman, were slaughtered. Clan Campbell
burned Toward Castle in 1646".
The Rev. W. White went on to state he didn't have any positive proof of
his elder relatives claim of Scotch ancestry.
Our Dr. I. C. White became very interested in the White Family History
and studied it for many years. Through his contact with John Barber White and
his wife Emma Siggins White, he was able to make a connection of our immigrant
ancestor, Stephen White to a White Family in England. I shall include here
some excerpts from the book GENESIS OF THE WHITE FAMILY AND THE SCOTTS OF
SCOT'S HALL - compiled by Emma Siggins White - assisted by Martha Humphreys
Maltby - Published by Tiernan - Dart Publishing Co., Kansas City, MO. - 1920.
In this book, she was tracing the ancestry of John Barber White but
included other White family records.
Mrs. White states in the forward to her book:
"The WHITE family derives its descent from Roderick the Great whose
descendant, Rhys ap Tudor, King of South Wales (or Deheu-barth), was slain in
1093, and from Ortha, living in the time of Edward the Confessor. Nesta,
daughter of Rhys ab Tudor, by her alliance with Gerald Fitz-Walter united the
two lines, and they were the ancestors of Walter White who accompanied Strong
Bow into Ireland in 1168."
"The almost insurmountable difficulty in the compilation of this
genealogy was the frequent repetition of the name JOHN WHITE; even two
brothers, John White, Bishop Winchester, and John White, mayor of London,
bearing the same name. We have been able to identify them by the same method
as did the signer of the Declaration of Independence who wrote Charles Carroll
"of Carrollton"; and so we style them John White, "the mayor of London"; John
White, "Bishop of Winchester"; John White, "The Patriarch of Dorchester";
John White, "the Councillor" or "Century White"; John White, "of Staunton St.
John"; John White, "of Hulcote"; John White, "Governor of Virginia"; John
White, "the immigrant"; and our own John White, "of Kansas City, Missouri,
U.S.A.", whose interest in genealogical research and preservation of historical
data must forever endear him to posterity."
WHITE FAMILY OF ENGLAND
(from Genesis of the White Family by Emma Siggins White - pg. 16)
"The WHITE family, which arrived in England at the time of the Norman
Conquest, is, without doubt, of the same lineage as the ancient family of
"Whyte" of Ireland, who traces descent from Walter White of Wales who
"transplanted himself, along with his brother, into Ireland." Walter White, of
South Wales, "who accompanied STRONG BOW in his expedition and conquest of
Ireland, and in regard for his courage and allegiance was made a knight by
Henry II, 1171. Nicolas Whyte (the descendant of the Strongbowian Knight)
married the sister of Thomas Butler, Prior of Jerusalem, and by her was father
of Maurice Whyte, the Lancastrain, so called for his having served under three
kings of the house of Lancaster." "In the conquest of Ireland, the arrival of
fresh forces heralded the coming of RICHARD OF CLARE, EARL OF PEMBROKE AND
STRINGULI, a ruined baron who bore the name of Strongbow, and who in defiance
of Henry's prohibition landed a force of fifteen hundred men, as Dermot's
mercenary, near Waterford. The city was at once stormed, and the united forces
of the Earl and King marched to the siege of Dublin. In spite of a relief
attempted by the King of Connaught, Dublin was taken by surprise; and the
marriage of Earl Richard with Eva, Dermot's daughter, left him on the death of
his father-in-law, which followed quickly on these successes, master of his
kingdom of Leinster. The new Lord had soon, however, to hurry back to England
and appease the jealousy of Henry by the surrender of Dublin to the crown, by
doing homage for Leinster as an English Lordship, and by accompanying the King
on his voyage to the new dominion which the adventurers had won."
(Burke's Landed Gentry; Hist. of the Eng. People, by J.L. Green p. 441)
The Family of Winn
"The original of Venta (from which the Bishop of Winchester is often
called, in our histories, Episcopus Ventanus and Wentanus) is by some felched
from Ventus (wind); and by others from Vinum (wine), and again by others from
Wina (a bishop), who all of them might be ashamed of such trifling derivations.
I should rather subscribe to the opinion of our countryman, Leland, who
derives the word from the British Leland, who derives the word from the British
Guin or Guen, that is WHITE; as if it were Cear Gwin, the White City." (New
Eng. Reg. Vol. IV, p. 325)
This family deduces its line from a common ancestor with the noble and
potene house of Geraldines, or FitzGerald of Ireland, and the Geralds and
Carews of England. The Carews are one of the few now remaining families who
can trace their descent without interruption from the Anglo-Saxon period of
English history. ..."
