One of the old timers around Marshall Pottery used to call OM4 "Kentucky
Glaze Clay" didn't mention white in the name, but I imagine it is probably
the same thing.
Where did you see it mentioned?

Thanks to those who responded privately and helped me find this. It is in a
glaze recipe that will be published in the next issue of Clay Times. As
some of you know, I look at their glaze recipes and comment (on their web
site) on the properties and suitability for functional or decorative work.
Turns out Old Hickory Clay Company has a clay they call No. 1 Glaze clay--it
is "a very high kaolinite bearing ball clay with extremely low levels of
carbon content and other impurities". The analysis is on their web site.
