General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] White


Robert White, the immigrant, landed in Massachusetts in 1650-52. He was a young man of prepossessing appearance and a fine education for those times. He settled near Salem, later wandered into Connecticut, where he married, had a numerous family, lived and died. While he was a subject of England he soon saw the necessity of better laws for the government of the English crown possessions, and often spoke of it publicly. He imbued his sons and his sons' sons with the idea of liberty of thought and the freedom of speech. In dying he left a legacy of a well-spent life to his children, and had accumulated a fine property before he had reached the age of fifty. [HJV, 846]
