Done some more research and it is definitely While and no White

Def While if you go right back to his ancestor John While 1774 in BCC but the name was always Wild or While to start with they were illiterate

I have looked at the 1911 Census and the names are clear - WHILE. I believe that the detailed schedules on-line are filed in by the house holders, so the signature is original.
