WHITE, ROBINSON
My g-g-father James Henry WHITE (b1869 Warren Co TN) married Flaura ROBINSON
or ROBERTSON sometime before 1893. I have been searching for any
information about Flaura for years. I recently found that Jms H WHITE
graduated from Burrill College in 1896 so believe he may have met Flaura
there. Flaura died in Wilson Co TN in 8 or 9/1896 soon after giving birth
to my g-mother. Her children's names were Valeria and Flaura - neither
of which came from the WHITE family. The only thing my g-mother knew about
her mother was that she was supposed to have a twin named Laura.
The WHITE family are members of the Church of Christ so he also could have
met Flaura at Spencer Church of Christ. Any help with finding Flaura's
family will be appreciated.
