Thanks, Phoenix. The search facility is very hit and miss.

William Percival White was my great-great-uncle, the brother of Herbert Edward White, my great-grandfather. His line has sadly died out. He had three children - two sons and a daughter. The daughter committed suicide in 1926 when she wanted to marry a man her parents regarded as unsuitable. The younger son was epileptic and didn't marry. He ended his life in an institution. The elder son had a bright future. He married, had a daughter and ran the family business. When he committed adultery and left his wife, my great-great-grandmother changed her will and his share was drastically reduced. His daughter married but had no children.
