WHITE BENHAM
I am seeking information on the WHITE/BENHAM families. My John W. White and his wife
Sarah BENHAM WHITE(m 1872 in Gibson Co. TN). The family moved to Arkansas around 1880.
I am told that they lived in Franklin County but that is un-documented. Children were:
William Brinkley WHITE, Vannie Lee WHITE, Cleo Patra WHITE, S.H. WHITE, E.E. WHITE and
Della Frances WHITE. I think other members of the BENHAM family also moved to Franklin.
Vincent BENHAM and John BENHAM probably moved to the same general area. According to a
family bible record, John W. WHITE died March 2, 1900. I don't know where he died, but
Franklin County, or somewhere else in Arkansas. is a good possibility. Any assistance
anyone can provide to help in my search for this family will certainly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Audrey
