About a month ago I began trying to find information about my g-g grandmother, Susan Catherine Wilhite (Kate), b 4 Aug 1842 in LA, d 16 Jan 1916 in Calhoun, Ouachita Parish, LA, m Nathaniel Green Watson in LA.. Thanks to the WILHITE-L, I found the information that Sharon Powers had posted from the 1850 census, which enabled me to locate her as the oldest child in the household of Thomas J. Wilhite and Leah Farmer. Barbara Keems and others have also provided useful information, and I have looked at Paul Lawrence's Wilhite/Wilhoit Family website. I'd loved to get more information about this Wilhite line. My descent is entirely through the female line: Susan Catherine Wilhite, m/o Leah Pamelia Watson, b 22 Dec 1860 in LA, d 21 Apr 1927, m Thomas Henry Roberts; m/o Kate Blanche Roberts, b 8 Feb 1883, d 8 Mar 1965, m. John M. Dumas; m/o Mary Blanche Dumas, m. Thomas Robert Howard; m/o Patricia Howard. Pat Howard
