Alderman and Sheriff White, 1872. Engraving from a photograph by Messrs. Lock and Whitfield. 'Mr. Thomas White, whose business connection with the City is of thirty-three years' standing, is Alderman of Portsoken Ward. He is in the fifty-second year of his age. He was born at Woodford, Essex, and married a daughter of the late Mr. B. Webb, of that place. He is a magistrate for Essex and Middlesex, a deputy-lieutenant for London, and Lieutenant-Colonel of the 3rd Essex Artillery Volunteers. In the spring of last year he was elected to represent the ward of Portsoken, in the place of the late Sir F. G. Moon, whose failing health obliged him take the less onerous post of Alderman for Bridge Without, then vacant by the resignation of Mr. Alderman Wilson. The election in Portsoken was not unopposed, there being another candidate (Mr. Sheriff Jones) besides Mr. White. The result was that Mr. White was at the head of the poll, his total being 347, and his opponent's 300'. From "Illustrated London News", 1872.
