Sandy, I was very interested to see your message. My husband also has a WHITE line from Darlington Co. I think they have always lived in the area that is now Lamar and Windamtown. Maria White (dates of birth and death unknown) had a son with a Mr. Mangum. I don't know his first name. He was a white man and an overseer on a farm or a plantation. He was also a Mason. Maria White and Mr. Mangum had a son, Augustus White. He was born in 1859 and died in 1913. Augustus White married Eliza Deschamps. Eliza passed away at a young age. Augustus remarried to Eliza's sister, Alice. With the two wives, Augustus fathered 25 children. The children of Eliza and Augustus are Lawrence, Gussie, Nettie, Lilia, Johnny, Mazon, Rosa, Eva, George, Simon, Maggie, Charles, Carrie, Bessie, and Bertha. Carrie White, on e of the younger children was born in 1896. She is my husband's grandmother. Carrie married Collins Rivers. They had two daughters, Sallie and Virginia. Carrie also died at a young age and Collins remarried and moved to WV. My husband says his mother, Sallie always claimed that her White line had Cherokee blood. She passed away in 1986, and I've been unable to confirm this with any other family members. As we're planning a family reunion for July, I really want to find some more information! Please let me know if you see any connection. Thanks for your reply. Also, does anyone know how to get information on members of the Masons from the 1800's? Thanks a bunch. Peggy
