    Default Family Rotary White serial number

    I would post a picture of my machine, but that would mean I would have to
    clean off my kitchen table, and I just don't have enough time or energy today.
    Or tomorrow. So let't just pretend that this is it (close enough)

    I have prized the documentation that Singer has kept. Why is White so
    backward? My machine has no plaque on the front with a number, as
    Singer would, but I did find one on the rear of the machine with the
    number 3X838, and embossed on the underside of the base was 813-7.
    Nowhere is there an FRnumber.

    Am I missing my serial number from the machine?

    There was a person on the TreadleOn web site that was working at documenting all the information they could get on White machines you might try going there and see if they are still around and ask them for some help.

    Katie Farmer is doing documentation on older White machines. The White Family Rotary machines' serial number usually starts with FR. My machine is 100 years old this year, the serial number is FR255722. This is my machine http://tinyurl.com/ozblscv
