General Notes: Husband - Edward White

---

Whitestown, Pennsylvania, was laid out by Edward White shortly after the death of his father, Matthew White, in 1812. Matthew White's log house was a tavern for many years. Being on the Franklin road, then a much frequented route, it was a place of general rendezvous during the War of 1812 and for many subsequent years. After Matthew White died, Edward White kept tavern, and years later, Matthew, son of Alexander White, kept hotel.
A post office was established in Whitestown at an early date\emdash probably 1830. Edward White was the first Postmaster.
He and his wife had eight children; six were still living in 1895.
