Who Were The Children of Julia (Finney) White?

 I compiled the list of names from the 1858 enslaved advertisement published in the Glasgow news paper, the 1858 Howard County Missouri probate records and the 1880 Missouri County census for the house hold of Julia White. .

I haven’t found confirmation if Linda WhiteMary White, Ben White or Lydia White were the children of Julia (Finney) WhiteI continue to search. I believe that this is a list of Julia (Finney) White’s children.

Mary White
She could have been living in the Howard / Chariton County area around 1870’s and 1880’s.
I have come across a Mary Harris. She was living not to far from Richard White on the 1880 Missouri census. .

Ben White,
He could have been Willis White or Willis B. White. He was living near the FERGUSONs and CASON families on the 1880 Missouri census. There are DNA matches with a Willis White descendants.

Andrew Jackson White
He was said to have been Julia’s son. This was according to oral history. Andrew was married to Laura Paige White. People called her Aunt Laura. According to the 1880 Missouri census, Andrew and Laura were living near Julia and her family in Chariton .County.

 (1862 – 1947)
She is confirmed by the 1880 Missouri census and was named in Spencer White’s 1929 obituary . There isn’t a death certificate in Missouri on Martha / Mattie White. Oral history states that she passed in Forest Green, Missouri in 1947.

Richard White (1866 – 1946)
He is confirmed by DNA matches from his descendants and was named in his brother Spencer’s 1929 obituary. Richard’s death certificate doesn’t list his parents.
