The History of the Yakima Valley, Washington, Comprising Yakima, Kittitas and Benton Counties, The S.J. Clarke Publishing Co., 1919, Volume II, page 660 CHARLES HUGH WHITE. Among the young and successful agriculturists of Yakima county is Charles Hugh White, a native of this county who was born in Cowiche. February 20, 1898, and is a son of Anson and Almeda (Tigard) White, pioneers of Yakima county. More extended mention is made of his parents on other pages of this work. The son was reared under the parental roof and subsequently rounded out his school work by attending a business college in Yakima. Laying aside his textbooks, he then engaged in ranching with his father, thus early in life acquiring valuable knowledge of agricultural pursuits. In November, 1913, he bought forty acres of the old homestead and to the cultivation of this tract has since given his undivided attention, raising hay and grain and also having important live stock interests, specializing in sheep and hogs. On the 16th of November, 1911, Mr. White was united in marriage to Miss Caddie Bonney, a native of Thurston county, Washington, and a daughter of Clarence Bonney, a pioneer of this state. To this union have been born two children, Almeda Bonney and Clarence Anson. Mr. White is a member of the Methodist church and his wife of the Christian church, in the work of which organizations they are actively and helpfully interested. In his political affiliations he is a republican and is thoroughly informed on the questions and issues of the day although he has never sought office, preferring to give his undivided time and attention to his private affairs. Both he and his wife have many friends in their part of Yakima county and are highly respected by all who know them. ******************************** Submitted to the Washington Bios Project in December 2007 by Jeffrey L.
