What I find most interesting is the fact that there are any living white Crows. Crows have a well researched habit of killing any crow that is not to a crows normal template. This is even true about chicks that are just begining to fletch.
I would think that those crow escaped from a human's cage. if the rest of the Black Crows' band had showed up the White crows would have been attacked.

there are always genetic variations in species.. also albinos occur occasionally. many years ago before many millions of them perished due to west nile virus, I saw a crow with some white feathers in wings, but it was basically black. there was one squirrel in a local park that was totally white, and a plushy white to boot. within the grouping near that squirrel there was one other that was close to white in coat and others who had some white hairs.... I never saw this again and unfortunately the whole grouping of squirrels were killed by feral cats inhabiting the parks. today the cats are long gone their survivors killed and eaten by either hawk, fox or coyote.

No, but I have seen crows with white markings, which I gather is uncommon. You were lucky to see them as pure white crows are very rare. It's too bad you didn't have your camera! The fact that you saw two together would suggest they are siblings and maybe the other two were also related to them.
You reminded me of a story I read as a little girl about a crow named Silverspot and so I had to go look it up. I've included the site in case you want to read it too. I've also included another site below that with an image of a white crow.
