William W. White.

   William W. White, who died at his residence, in Nicholasville, on January 5,
1887, in the 80th year of his age, was one of the most earnest supporters of the
doctrines of Alexander Campbell and was instrumental in building up several
congregations of that faith in the county. He organized what is known as the
Little Hickman church on the 27th of January, 1841. He was a son of William G.
White, who came from Culpeper Court House, Va. He became impressed with the
doctrines propounded by Mr. Campbell and from the time of his uniting with that
denomination until the end of his life, gave his time and talents and energy to
building up the church which adopted them. His membership was in the
Nicholasville Christian church. However people might differ with Mr. White in
his theological views, none ever doubted the earnestness and the faithfulness of
his Christian service and of the unselfishness of his ministration. He was
plain, simple-hearted and earnest. While engaged in other business, he preached
always as occasion offered and never failed to respond to such calls as his
church made upon him.
