White of Anderson Co., KY. I found Waller in a Wayne County, Illinois newspaper clipping and I persued to find information about him thinking that he may somehow be part of my White family there in Wayne County. Waller O. White was born about 1830 in Anderson County, Kentucky to Thomas White (b. abt 1806 in VA) and Jane (b. abt 1803 in KY). He is listed with his family in Anderson Co. in the 1850 & 1860 Census (in 1860 he works as a Plasterer). According to Familysearch.org he was married to a George Ann Price in Dec 1860 in Anderson Co., KY. However, for whatever reason he was in Wayne County, Illinois in Aug 1861. A murder took place in Wayne County and Waller was arrested on suspicion. Waller died in the Wayne County jail due to a continued fever on Oct 31, 1861. They never proved he was or was not guilty, but they say that his previous years in Anderson County were of good character. I hope this information (of sad nature) provides some pieces to anyone who may be researching this family. Mary (White) Roark
