Mr. White was born in Ripley township Feb 28, 1844, and was 74 years of age. He was the son of John C and Nancy (Taylor) White. Reared on his father's farm, he entered the army during the civil war, and was engaged chiefly in post duty in and about Washington.
In 1886 he was elected auditor of Huron couty, and filled that office with distinguished ability for six years. During this time he resided with his family in Norwalk.
After the expiration of his term, he entered the banking business, at first in the First National Bank of Norwalk, and afterward in the First National Bank of Greenwich, where he remained up to the time of his retirement from business.
On February 25, 1869, he was married to Miss Marietta Barre, of Ripley township, who survived him. Three children were born to them: James E. who died some years ago; Blanche (Mrs S. E. Leonard); and John Gaylord, of the Wakeman Bank Co, Wakeman, Ohio. The burial was in Woodlawn, Norwalk. (The Firelands Pioneer)
