History of Montgomery County [Indiana] by H.H. Beckwith, 1881

Union Township

E.A. WILHITE, tailor, Crawfordsville, who has spent nearly all his years
in Montgomery County, was born January 1, 1820, in Jefferson County, Kentucky.
He is a son of Simeon and Mary (FUNK) WILHITE, who came to Crawfordsville
in 1824, and shortly after settled south of the then "log city" of a few
houses, where, in 1829, Simeon departed this life, and was followed by
his wife in 1833. E.A. WILHITE received the training and schooling of a
pioneer's boy, and can well remember the log school-house with its slab
seats and window of greased paper for light, the absence of desks, and
especially the primitive "master." At the age of ten years he began to
use the needle, and has followed tailoring ever since, being now one of
the most thoroughly experienced workmen in the city. For over thirty years
he has worked in his present shop. By economy and industry and fair dealing
he has accumulated a little fortune of $15,000 or $20,000. Mr. WILHITE
has a peculiar passion for music, having been connected with the Crawfordsville
band ever since 1840, and still loves the recreation. In 1840 he played
at the Tippecanoe battle-ground celebration, and again in 1876. Mr. WILHITE
was a whig during the time of that party, and with the advent of republicanism
he adopted its principles. He has been twice married; first to Ada J. BLANKENSHIP,
of Crawfordsville, who died leaving one son, James Q.W., to survive her;
and second, to Dr. Mary H. HOLLOWAY, of the same city. The fruits of the
last marriage have been seven children: three deceased, Edgar, Ella N.
and Fred; and four living, Edwin L., Mary E., Stanton L. and Bertha J.
Mrs. WILHITE is a daughter of Washington and Elizabeth (KING) HOLLOWAY,
the former of whom is now living in Crawfordsville at the age of eighty
years. Mrs. WILHITE attended school sufficient to fit herself for teaching,
which she followed four years. In 1854 she entered Penn Medical University,
from which she graduated in 1856. She was educated here at the expense
of J. Edgar THOMSON, one of the members of the original board of incorporation
of that college, and a wealthy gentleman of Philadelphia. Mrs. WILHITE
was the first lady form Indiana to graduate in a medical school. Leaving
her Alma Mater June 2, she nailed her sign where it is still to be seen,
on the 22nd of that same month, 1856. She emphatically asserts she has
solved the problem that a woman can be a "wife, mother, and physician."
During her practice she has given instruction to two students: Mrs. WOOD,
who afterward graduated at Penn Medical University, and was then engaged
as lady physician in foreign lands by the Home and Foreign Mission, and
Mrs. WILSON, who now holds three diplomas and is doing an extensive practice
in Terre Haute, Indiana. Mrs. WILHITE is also an ardent supporter in woman's
rights, and fully expects to see the day when woman may vote for those
who make laws or govern her, and when doctors will counsel one another
without distinction in regard to sex.
