The following is copied from the RootsWeb WorldConnect page of Jackie
Barnes:
Notes: per genealogy compiled by Lawrence Brainerd in 1919: Lieut.
Ebenezer White (also styled "Captain") son of Capt. Thomas and (----)
White was born in Weymouth, MA in 1648. He lived and died in his
native town on the place afterwards occupied by his
great-great-grandson, Deacon Abiel White, in North Weymouth. He was
admitted a Freeman in 1674. He was "a man of integrity and worth and a
respected and useful citizen". He served his town for many years as a
Selectman and in 1690 was commissioned Lieutenant of Weymouth Company
(Capt. Ephraim Hunt, commanding) and served in the expedition to
Canada against the French and the Indians, in King William's War
(1690/91). The record of his death (Weymouth town records) and his
gravestone use the title "lieutenant" and other records designate him
as "captain". He married in Weymouth in 1671, Hannah Phillips, born in
Weymouth Nov 15, 1654, daughter of Nicholas and Hannah (Salter)
Phillips.
Lieutenant Ebenezer White died in Weymouth, August 24, 1703, at the
age of 55 and the inventory of his estate amounted to lbs. 955:IOs:6d.
(a very goodly sum for those days. His wifes death is not upon the
record.
.....See Syl's note below regarding Hannah Phillips.

II, p. 365; Suffolk Co., MA, Probate Files #3893; Vinton Memorial
(1858), p. 369-70
Asa White reports in his 1804 compilation that he took the birth year
for Ebenezer from his gravestone.
.
.....Syl's note: I do not believe that the Hannah Phillips whose birth
(25 Nov 1654) was recorded in Boston, dau of Nicholas and Hannah
(Salter) Phillips, was the person who married Ebenezer White. This
Nicholas Phillips (called a shop keeper and later victualler) died 15
Mar 1669/70 (Suffolk Probate Vol 7, p.37). The widow, Hannah Salter
Phillips, went on to marry John Ruggles before 3 Nov 1671 when their
daughter Ruth was born.
.....There was another Nicholas Phillips living in the area at the
same time. Deacon Nicholas Phillips of Weymouth was married to
Elizabeth Jewson, and they had a daughter, Hannah Phillips. In his
will dated 2 Jun 1671, proved 3 Oct 1672, Deacon Nicholas Phillips
mentions his daughter, "Hannah White". There is an excellent debate
about the two Nicholas Phillips at the Phillips Cousins website.Ebenezer married Hannah Phillips about 1670 in Weymouth, Norfolk County, Massachusetts. Hannah (daughter of Deacon Nicholas Phillips and Elizabeth Jewson) was born on 25 Nov 1654. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
