The Samuel White House, at 315 N. 100 East in Beaver, Utah, was built in 1869. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[2]

The original house was built in 1869-70 by Samuel Orson White and his three brothers. A cross-wing addition was added over about four years starting in 1887. The house is considered significant as it retains the original one-story section of the house, which was one of the very early permanent homes in Beaver.[2]

Samuel White was born in Nauvoo, Illinois in 1844. He married Ellen Gudgeon. White was a farmer and a firefighter. He reported that the materials for the house cost $86.[2]
