Yates White was the fourth son in the family, of which there is but one survivor, Thomas White, of Howard.

There he grew to maturity, and in April, 1861, he married Miss Amelia Hewitt, daughter of George and Elizabeth (Gordon) Hewitt, the former of whom was born in England, and the latter on the bank of the river Thames, where her father, John Gordon, settled as early as 1810; the latter was a soldier in the war of 1812...
     After their marriage Mr. and Mrs. White settled on the Hewitt homestead, where they had the care of Mrs. White's parents until they died...
