Jeanne Marie Seibyl White, 66, departed this life on August 28, 2023 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, the beloved wife of Dr. D. Steven White, cherished mother of four children, and grandmother of one.
Vivacious and brilliant, she was a dedicated genealogist, archivist, and historian, and was profoundly passionate about her family history. Spending countless hours analyzing and documenting Eastern European records spanning the last four centuries, she developed an unparalleled cultural and historical understanding of these areas. She authored several books which remain indispensable and treasured tomes by researchers of Maryland Polonia.
Jeanne doted on her pets, was famous for her matzo ball soup, and enjoyed old movies. She had a razor-sharp wit and enjoyed spending time with her family.
As a friend and neighbor, she was simply The Best. We all miss her. Rest in Peace Jeanne! We Love you!!
