General Notes: Husband - William Snodgrass White
Canonsburg, Washington Co, PA
He was three years old when his parents moved to Hickory, PA. He received his education in the common schools and an academy. From 1835 to 1841 he conducted a general store in Hickory, and then moved on a farm on which he remained until the spring of 1872, at which time he went to Canonsburg.
In 1856 Mr. White was a member of the old Know-Nothing party, but after the formation of the Republican party he enrolled under their banner. He frequently declined to accept positions of honor and trust. The position of associate judge was offered him, but even that he found it necessary for various causes to refuse. For forty years he was a consistent member of the Presbyterian Church. His farm, containing 300 acres, lay about half a mile north of Hickory, and in addition he had ninety acres on which there was a coal mine, located near Hickory. He eventually retired from active life, and his home was cared for by his dutiful and affectionate daughters. Both his paternal and maternal ancestors were of Scotch-Presbyterian descent, from the North of Ireland.
