"The children of Robert White of Messing, Co. Essex, England, Who Settled in Hartford and Windsor. By a Descendant.
Robert White of Messing, yeoman, died in 1617. He was a rich man. He seems to have lived in Shalford in Essex most of the time from June 24th, 1585, the date of his marriage to Bridget Allgar, until a few months before his death. The baptisms of nearly all his children are there recorded, and also the marriage of his daughters - Mary in 1614 and Elizabeth in 1616. It was the home of his wife, where she was baptized March 11, 1562, and where her father, William Allgar the elder, was buried Aug. 2, 1575. Shalford is about two miles south of Wethersfield...
It deserves to be mentioned that family genealogies have been printed of all the members of Robert White's family who are known to have emigrated to New England, namely:
Elder John White and his descendants, in 1860.
The Loomis Genealogy, in 1875.
Loomis Genealogy, female branches, in 1880.
The Goodwin's of Hartford, Conn., in 1891.
John Porter and his descendants, in 1893.
Memorials of Roderick White and descendants, in 1892.
From these books some of the preceding facts have been taken, and to these genealogies the reader is referred for full and interesting memorials of these families...

MARRIAGE:
1. Could William's wife have been Anne. Notice from the marriage extractions in the following article that an Anne Allgar married Henry Bette 16 Oct 1575, which would have been two months after William Algar's death. On the other hand, Anne may be another daughter of William Allgar born abt 1556 or earlier before William Jr. of abt. 1558. Since the husband of Anne is noted as the son John Bette, it would appear that he was a young enough groom to have to have his father's name included in the register entry. If Anne had been an older widow, then her newer husband most likely would not have had a father's name included. I assume Anne is a daughter until proven otherwise.
