The Whitenack family originated Holland and were driven from, or rather left, the country on account of religious differences. They belonged to the nobility and upon coming to america in the colonial days they first settled in New Jersey and later emmigrated to Ohio, where Mrs Noland was born. When she was a year old, her parents located in Eel River township, this county, between Danville and North Salem, where her father bought a farm in 1856. Here the family lived until her father's death in 1882. He was a farmer and during the summer operated a threshing machine and at other times operated a tile factory, employing more men in his various enterprizes than any other man in the township. He was a life-long Democrat and at one time was nominated on the ticket for county treasurer, but inasmuch as his party was in a hopeless minority he had no chance of election. Mr. and Mrs. Whitenack reared a family of eight children, Namely: Ella, Mrs. Noland; Llewellyn, deceased; Isalona, the wife of John F. Jeffers; Viola, the wife of Marshall Gardner of Indianapolis; Levona, the wife of Harry Dean, of North Salem; Theresa, wife of G.W. Lackey, of Lawrenceville, Illinois; Oscar Odell, of Denver, Colorado; and Leon A. of Indianapolis. Mrs Whitenack is still living at North Salem at the age of seventy-eight years.
