This came from the White-L@rootsweb.com list. I do not know these people.

Clay Clay, do you have any further information on this White family. I am trying to locate the parents of Joseph F. White, born, NC between 1855 and 1858. As of 1878 I know he was in Cocke, TN because he married Synthia Ann Queen there. Later (after 1894) they were in Wise Co, VA and then in 1910 they were in Claiborne, TN. There seemed to be several generations of James Whites in the family. 1910 census lists Perry living with Joseph and his family - lists him as "brother." I was curious about the family that you mentioned since Gilbert was from NC and died in TN and had a son James. I have hit a brick wall with Joseph and would appreciate any information that you might have. Thank you. Sharon Flora -- Researcher: Family Surnames of SW VA, TN, E.
