NOAH H. WILHITE is a native of this township, was born April 26, 1835, and is
a son of Noah and Mary (Williams) Wilhite, natives of Virginia and Kentucky, who
came to this State from Kentucky in 1834 and settled on land in this township,
where they reared thriteen children. Our subject was reared to the honorable
pursuit of farming, acquired a fair education from the public schools, and became
an adept in music, both instrumental and vocal. October 6, 1855, in Adams Town-
ship, he married Mary A. Hobbs, by whom he has become father of five children
--Saletha Belle, Urban C., John R., Emma G. and George W. In 1872, Mr. Wil-
hite removed to Illinois, remained three years in Effingham County, where he taught
the science of music, and later returned, from ill health, to Indiana. For the last five
years, he has managed the homestead. The father of our subject died in March,
1858, aged sixty-two years. The daughter of our subject--Mrs. Deer--is also
a teacher of vocal and instrumental music.
