| Notes |
- The White family was part of the group of settlers who came to Haywood County from Bertie County, NC very early in the 1830s. Eliza's mother, Martha Hughs White died in Bertie County in 1833
at the age of 39. Her father, Solomon died around 1837 in Haywood County. According to the Joe Cobb book, Martha Hughs White listed in her will her sons George, Charlton, and Thomas White and her daughters, Polly, Elizabeth, Nelly and Patsy White. She made her will in Oct 1832 and it was probated in Feb 1833. Martha's son Charlton White moved from Bertie to Haywood between 1830 - 1832. Either at that time, or at some point later, both Eliza and her father, Solomon also made the trip from Bertie to Haywood County.
Another family to join them on their journey to Haywood County was John Bembery and Penelope Trottman White. While the exact connection between the two families is not certain, Eliza
named her first son Bembery so there was certainly a significant connection. John and Penelope White's daughter Agatha remained a single woman until the age of 46 when she married 75-year-old John Hardy Cobb in 1873. John Hardy Cobb and his first wife, Harriet W. Castellaw were my third great grandparents. [1]
