Emile (E-mil) White moved to Brookfield, VT from Mooers Forks, NY. On March 31, 1904, he purchased the farm then known as the Morse Farm, from George Richards. This was a 345 acre farm with a large barn and several other buildings. He used to pasture his cattle on what is now Allis State Park. The place is now owned by David Threlkeld.
Mr. White was a farmer and carpenter by trade. He served the town as Selectman from 1908-1912. He was Road Commissioner in 1915 when a new floating bridge was built across the pond. His father, Amada (am-a-dy) White, came to Brookfield March 21, 1906 and purchased a small farm, joining his son's on the Bear Hill Road, from Merton Chase. Together they farmed several years. When Emile's wife Media died suddenly in 1915, he left the farm in the care of his son Leon White, and moved to Winchendon, MA where he built several houses. He later returned to Vermont where he died in 1957 at the age of 98.
Emile White and his wife Media had five children; Elma, Wayne, Axie, Leland and Alfa; all but one were born in the house now owned by Larry Irish. When AAlfa was only six months old, their mother Stella, died of peritonitis, leaving all five children age ten or under. As was the custom when a father spent his days in the field, the children were sent to live with different relatives with the exception of Axie who remained with her father.
In 1932, Axie married Francis Blanchard of Brookfield and they farmed the Blanchard farm of four generations (orginally the Bolton place) for over thirty years before buying the Snowsville General Store which they operated for about seven years.
