James Edson White was the eldest son of James and Ellen White. Edson White began an educational program for Negro children and their elders, using only the meager resources he and his friends had at their command. Their Morning Star mission, however, laid the groundwork for most of the educational. medical, evangelistic, and publishing work throughout the South.
