Jim,

https://lightroomkillertips.com/cool-tips-white-balance-eyedropper-tool/

https://www.lightroompresets.com/blogs/pretty-presets-blog/14740581-3-ways-to-correct-white-balance-in-lightroom

I normally do this in Photoshop, by setting
black(R5,G5,B5)/white(R250,G250,B250)/50% grey (R128,G128,B128) points on a
curve layer. It is a bit more work, but very accurate.

Cheers
Jayanand
