Lists his wife but I cannot read the name she was born in MS, George was listed as being born in GA. I have a lot of the info. from him til today. I think he was buried in the old Higgins cemmetary that is near Bear Creek. He owned the property where Bear Creek is located and a portion of the ground around Bear Creek until the state decided to buy this ground and make Bear Creek sometime after the 30's I believe.

My grandfather's father is a Kennedy and he had a great-grandmother whose maiden name was Kennedy. I've suspected some kin from the Kennedys in the area of Lee or St. Francis Counties but I don't know. I have a Sarah Kennedy who was Arthur's aunt who was born in 1853 but died by 1870 so that can't be her. I still don't even have the parents of my ggg grandmother whose maiden name is Kennedy. Wish I could be of more help.

Surnames: White, Shaw, Hodges, Howkett, Dilbeck, Markham, Guerin, Newman Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/jV.2ADE/80 Message Board Post: I am searching for information on the descendants of Elbert and Eunice Calvert White. The last record we have of Elbert and Eunice – as well as several of their 15 children – is the 1860 Polk Co., census. However by 1870 some of these boys were located in Van Buren Co, and 1880 in Faulkner Co., with their families. But since most of the girls would have married in the 1840s, 50s, and maybe 60s, and many courthouses were burned since that time, we have not been able to locate marriage records, therefore do not have surnames to work with. So, I am sending out a plea to anyone who thinks they might be descended from one of the following to get in touch with me. James White b 1838 Walker Co., AL Adaline White b 1839 Walker Co., AL Nancy White b 1840 Walker Co., AL Elbert W. White b 1841 Blount Co., AL m 26 August 1875 Sarah “Sally” Newman Unicy (Eunice?) White b 1843 McNairy Co., TN Talishy/Faith White b 1845 McNairy Co., TN Eliza Jane White b 1849 McNairy Co., TN Thompson White b1853 McNairy Co., TN Samuel White b 1855 Polk Co., AR I do have quite a bit of information on the rest of the children and will be glad to swap information or compare notes.
