Cork / Re: DUDLEY, PARKER AND WHITE (and a few others!)

Are you still looking for the White family? The info I have would suggest Aileen white was born about 1899/1900 and not 1910 - you may feel the info doesn't relate to your family, but just in case.......

I don't know anything of Patrick White's descendants, other than the fact that according to the 1901 census his daughter, Aileen, was born in Africa - possibly South Africa.

The White family come from Bailieborough, Co Cavan, Ireland. A large proportion of the males became clergy - mostly Presbyterian. Patrick's grandfather, also called Patrick was minister at Corglass ( 1st Bailieborough ). Patrick's father, Thomas Robert was also minister here from 1865 to 1906. Was Patrick a missionary? - I don't know.

Patrick's parents were Thomas Robert White ( 3/June/1829  - 25/January/1906 ) and Jane Agnes Roy, from Scotland. They had at least 6 children - George, Verner, William, and Thomas Robert (Rev) - these 4 all went to the USA. There was Patrick Ogilvy (your relative, who went to Africa)  and Isabella Emily who probably remained in Ireland.

You can see the census record  - type Bailieborough - Ancestors/Placeanames and Records into search engine. In the list on the left, look at Corglass 1901 and then in this list look at Corglass.
