• Notes

  "Uncle Ben" White was known by his younger relatives for his police work. This was verified by his obituary, where he was called " 'Smiling Ben,' Police Force Veteran". He served the Minneapolis Police Force for 38 years. Prior to that he had been involved in the lumber business. His obituary states Ben was one of 13 children.
