Person talk:Moses White (25)

Which Moses m. Isabel Cochran? [31 August 2019]

There may be some confusion going on as to which Moses White married Isabel Cochran.

                 Adam
       ____________|__________
       |                     |
     Moses (1)             Hugh 
                             |
                           Moses (2)

The info for Moses s/o Adam says he m. Isabel Cochran and gives children David, Jane, Joseph, James, Mary, and John supposedly based on his will (for which there is neither a transcription nor source).

Moses s/o Hugh married Mary McConnell, probably mother of Hugh, John, Robert, Moses, Elizabeth and Jean. Then we find his will dated 5 Oct 1757 at Lancaster County, PA, naming his loving wife Esabel, son William, son James White, son Henry White, daughter Sarah, daughter Agnes White, daughter Esbel, son John White, son Robert White, son Moses White, daughter Elizabeth White, daughter Jean White, and brother William Cochran (sole executor). This suggests a 2nd wife Isabel who was the mother of William, James, Henry, Sarah, Agnes and Isabel (all under age in 1757).

So do we have two different Isabel Cochrans or just one who married married the younger Moses s/o Hugh, not Moses s/o Adam?

Can anyone clear up this possible conflict? --KayS 20:07, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
