Dawn - how old would she have been ie when was she born? Was White a married or maiden name? How did you connect to her name?

Your tree has her as being born in 1886 - is that a guess or fact? There are numerous trees who have Bertha (no middle name) White 1886 in their trees. Use the Search all member trees under Search (top right of the screen) and send messages to ask if they have any further details.

People won't come to you - you have to be proactive
