John White - From my inbox:

Somebody doesn't realize just how MANY MANY John Whtes there are.

Elder John White of Lancaster, MA is fairly well documented, but there are loads of other John Whites - some of whom are hardly documented at all.

I won't touch it lol
I think this is the BEST place to address the "question".

Thank you for the comment, Private User
I may dive into a WHITE line some day but not today (my husband has a White line)

They're everywhere. :-)

One source *not* to trust is Emma Siggins White's "Genesis of the White Family". She started with the newbie error that "all families with the same surname must be related" (not necessarily), and went from incompetence to outright fraud in misrepresenting her husband's White ancestors (they were Somerset shepherds, not Home Counties gentry).

John White is my 21st cousin thrice removed.

Ingrīda Cinkmane (Dzelvīte) there are MANY MANY MANY of us Americans who have done DNA and work on genealogy who are hoping to find our/their ancestors before they came here and even cousins who are descended from those who stayed.
Thank you for your comment :)

I did not say that well but I hope you understand lol
I have Finnish and Swedish and etc ethnicity showing and I recently uploaded my raw DNA to Geneanet after I saw a mention on GENI during Roots Tech.
My brother's son just had a rash (a WHOLE BUNCH) of DNA matches from Finland and I am hopeful to figure out the MRCA.
The commonality of a surname makes it especially "head - banging"/frustrating to work on a specific line but it is always fun to find a challenge.
As someone who was born in another country to American parents, I really love knowing I have ancestors and living relatives all over the world.
Just a few thoughts...
