On Leo's great website here

http://www.genealogics.org/getperson.php?personID=I00199993&tree=LEO

we see that Anne White who married John Porter of Felstead 18 Oct 1620
and thereby became ancestral to Ulysses Grant, President of the US
1869-1877

Leo is not showing the Jaynes/Janes ascent for Henry Fonda, however it
is known that he ascends to that same Joseph Loomis of Braintree who
married Mary White 30 Jun 1614 Shalford, co Essex.

Both Anne White Porter and Mary White Loomis are children of
Robert White of Messing, yeoman, testate (1617) buried 17 Jun 1617
Shalford, co Essex and his wife
Bridget Allgar baptised 11 Mar 1562 Shalford, co Essex, daughter of
William the elder, he buried 2 AUg 1575 Shalford, co Essex

Robert White and Bridget Allgar married 24 Jun 1585

Are there any other very famous people descended from this William
Allgar ?

Also, President Millard Fillmore, the poet Emily Dickinson, and Mary
Baker Eddy the founder of Christian Science. These, and some of the
above, are covered in Gary Boyd Roberts' "Notable Kin", vol. 1 (1998).

Please Disregard the post on Don Knotts. It unfortunately had some
errors. I may repost at a later time.

It was mentioned that Millard Fillmore, US President 1850-1853
descends from this same Bridget Allgar.

Leo is showing the extended ancestry of Millard, but without this link

http://www.genealogics.org/ultraped.php?personID=I00428178&tree=LEO&parentset=0&display=compact&generations=8

Can anyone supply here, the missing pieces ?

Thanks
