Excerpt from The Homes and Haunts of Henry Kirk White: With Some Account of the Family of White, of Nottingham and Norfolk For the materials from which the descent of the White family after they had settled in Norfolk has been compiled, I am indebted to Mr. Cuthbert Becher Pigot, of Eaton, Norwich. Mr. Pigot, who has shown much interest in the progress of this volume, is not only of Nottinghamshire descent, but is doubly connected by marriage with H. K. White, his uncle being the late Rev. Joseph Neville White, Vicar of Stalham, Norfolk, and his brother-in-law l1eut.-col. Herbert Southey Neville White - the nephew and great-nephew respectively of the poet. Mr. Pigot's aunt, Mrs. Joseph Neville White, has very kindly lent for reproduction the whole of the White portraits in the last section of the volume, and states that no portrait of Hannah White (mrs. Joshua Smith) is known to exist. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
