Hi,

I'm looking for information on William B. White, son of William M. White and Martha A. White (don't know her maiden name).

William B. White seems to have lived in Prescott at the same time as another man by the same name -- William B. White, son of Joseph Rosser White and Pheobe Whiteside. My assumption is that I'm related to this clan of Whites too, but I'm not sure how.

My William B. White appears in the 1880 Census, living in the household of his father William M, along with mother Martha A, and young brother Charles. He was born about 1860.

He married Nancy "Nannie" Jane Melson on 21 Oct 1886. She was the daughter of Leandor Elmore Melson and Mary Ellen Wingfield.

William B. and Nannie White's children were:
Snow E White
William Elmore "Buck" White
Lawrence White
Charles Marshall White
Beatrice W White
Elbie White

Charles Marshall White married Ethel Marie Beggs, daughter of Henry Beggs and Carrie Harrison. Their children are:
Charles Dee White
Dorothy Snow White
Bob White

If you have any information on William B. White, his ancestors, or his descendants, including photos, documents, newspaper clippings, or anything else, I love to see them. Would appreciate any census lookups too. I have the 1880 census information mentioned above. I also have 1920 census on Henry Beggs, and 1930 census on Charles Marshall White. Anything new would be appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Andrea White
