SOLOMON WHITE

HATHORN

Solomon White, one of the enterprising business men of Vinton, is a
native of Lincoln County, Maine, born June 24, 1839.  He is a son of
Solomon and Joanna (Hathorn) White, also natives of the same State.  They
were the parents of eight children, six of whom are now living.  In 1856
they emigrated to Kane County, Illinois, locating near Maple Park, where
they subsequently died.

... there is more to this biography, but Lori did not have a copy of the next
page.  She reports that he served in the Civil War and moved to Vinton, IA
following his service.  A check of the 1870 IL Census index shows 2 Solomon
Whites (one a Jr.) aged 32 and 69, living in Virgil, both born in Maine.  
NARA census roll M593-237, pages 490 & 486.
