There were three parcels of land purchased from the government by Jary White. Based on a biography of Jary White, the son, we believe that the elder Jary purchased 40 acres, sufficient for his and Lucena's needs, and the son, Jary, a young, vigorous man with a growing family, purchased 160 acres. |

Unidentified Son White b: between 1811-1815 d: burial: |
Based on the 1830 Census, which shows a male child between the ages of 15 and 19. The 1840 census does not account for this son. He may have been deceased or, at age 25 to 29, he could easily have been in his own home. |

Information has come to light that suggests John Wesley White was not a son of Jary and Lucena. Other data on the linked page for John is still valid, supported by various records and the research of E. Jean Burns. The connection to Jary and Lucena is in question. We would very much like to correspond with anyone connected to John Wesley White's family.

Rachael D. White b: abt 1825 New York m: May 01, 1844 Hancock Co, IL d: Mar 23, 1900 burial: Fairview Cemetery, Smith Co, KS
Spouse: John Foy

Jean Burns' research also made it possible to further trace Rachael White and John Foy. The inscription on Rachael's tombstone reportedly includes the date of her death and age at death: 71 years. Early White family census records (1830 and 1840) comprise a welcome example of listings that track closely with known children and their ages. Listings for Rachael from 1850 through 1880 are consistent in age progression. All of the censuses suggest she was born about 1825. Perhaps the age at death is 74 years, the 4 having weathered until it looks like a 1.

Section O, grave #4324
Spouse: Mary Austin

Lieutenant Thomas B. White of the 118th Illinois Infantry (which was en route to Vicksburg) was killed during the Battle of Champion Hill in Mississippi. Almost surely buried near the site of the battle, he was later reinterred at Vicksburg National Cemetery after that cemetery was established in 1866. In addition, both a government issued tombstone and a tombstone purchased by the family were erected for him at the Thomas' estate was not settled for several years after his death.
