James and Ellen White had four sons. --Henry White -- died at the age of 17 --James Edson White -- 1849-1928 --William (Willie) White --- 1854–1937 --Herbert White -- died in infancy
Edson White didn't have any children.
In 1870 he married Emma McDearmon Edson caused his parents some grief as he went through a stage of disinterest in church things, but while in his early forties he committed himself to God and His work. He, with his wife Emmam, established a mission to spread the Adventist message to colored people in the south of the United States. A boat called the Morning Star was outfitted for this work as he travelled up and down the Mississippi. Edson wrote several books to share with the colored folk. He established a publishing organisation originally known as the "Gospel Herald Publishing Company". It was taken over by the church and renamed to "Southern Publishing Association" in 1901, which subsequently merged with the Review and Herald.
Edson's work was not easy. He met a large amount of prejudice from the church and very little help.
Willie White After his father's death in 1881, William became his mother's chief helper, traveling with her and helping her in her many duties. He was also a successful minister. Upon His mother's death he became the director of the white estate of her many writings.
William played a major role in establishing health-food manufacture in Australia.
Willie had two daughters with his first wife Mary Kelsy. Mabel (who married _______ Workman and Ella (who married Dores Eugene Robinson)
After Mary died Willie married his second wife May Lacey They had twin boys -- Herbert and Henry

William C. (Willie) White and May Lacy had three more children: a daughter, Grace (who later became Grace Jacques) a third son -- Arthur White, and a fourth son Francis Edward.
Three months after Arthur was born, his half sister, Ella White-Robinson also gave birth to a son, who was given the name Virgil (Robinson).
William (Willie)served as secretary in the White Estate until he died on Sept. 1, 1937. He was replaced by his son, Arthur L. White. In the 1980's Arthur produced a six-volume biography of his grandmother entitled, Ellen G. White: A Biograghy. Arthur wrote numerous other books like "Ellen G. White, the human interest story" (1970), "Ellen G. White, the human interest story" (1969) as well as hundreds of articles. Arthur's wife's name was Frieda. Arthur White died in 1991.
So Willie had seven children in all -- Mabel (married Wilfred Workman) Ella (married Dores Robinson) children Virgil and Mabel
Herbert (married Anna Johnson) daughter Kathryn Henry (married Margaret Rossiter) Grace (married Dr. John Jacques) Arthur (married Frieda Swingle) Francis
There were at least 13 great children..... not just the three mentioned here.
