'''William White''' (1755-1833) Born in Fauquier County, Virginia on Jan 10, 1755. On 17 October 1832 William White "appeared before the Justices of the County Court of Lincoln County Tennessee" where he was a resident and under oath made a "declaration in order to attain the benefit of a provision made by act of Congress passed June 7, 1832" to provide pensions for Revolutionary Service. (His petition is in the National Archives # S1735). In his [http://www.rootsweb.com/~valancas/docs/WhiteRevPen.html application] he states:<blockquote>I was born in Fauquier County, Virginia on the 10th day of January, 1755. I have a record of my age now in my possession. I lived there when I entered service. After the Reolutionary War, I moved to Rowan County , North Carolina, where I lived about 30 years, then came to this county where I now live.</blockquote> In 1800 there is a William White living in Rowan County, North Carolina.
