Thomas Gibbs White was
born near Zoar, Warren County, Ohio March 26, 1852. His father and grandfather
bore the name of James White
and both resided on the farm upon which the deceased was born. When he
was about two years old, he came with his father's family to the farm
where he spent the remainder of his life, with the exception of four years.
During this time he was employed in teaching and in the grocery business
at Morrow, Ohio. A part of his education was gained in the country school
and the remainder in the Normal school
in Lebanon. His first wife was Ada M. Dugan. They were
married February 15, 1876. Her grandfather and his, were co-workers in
the Methodist ministry, and their marriage was the culmination of the
life long association of the families. Five children were born of this
union. They are, James Charmer, Sarah Elizabeth,
wife of L. S. Ivins, Mary Keever, wife
of A. G. Gilmore, Robert Marvyn and
Laura Emily. In these was his very soul wrapped up and
for them he spent his life freely This home circle was broken January
2, 1893 by the death of the wife and mother, but, his courage never failed
in the darkest hour. For the few years following his sister came into
the home to assist in the care of the family especially of the two-months-old
baby. He was married October 19, 1898 to Adaline T. Jameson
who ever since has presided over his home with diligence and care, Throughout
his life his sunny nature won friends and his sincerity held them. He
lived an exemplary Christian life. The principles of religion inculcated
in his early life strengthened as the years went on, and all who were
privileged to enter his sick room realized this to be true. His testimony
to all was of the abiding presence of his Savior. He had a keen perception
of the right and was conscientious and true. He united with the M. E.
church in Lebanon, March 1, 1868, under the pastorate of Dr. D.
J. Starr and continued in full fellowship and manifold labors
of love until the summons came for his transition. For several years he
has held official position in the church. He was taken sick January 10,
with appendicitis. After suffering patiently for ten days he peacefully
passed away January 20, 1909. Beside his wife and children, many friends
and relatives remain to cherish his [memory] as an inspiration to noble
living and Christian devotion. Resolutions of Respect. Therefore be it Source: obituary from unidentified newspaper
