2157 Notes about Alvin's birth city,
His marriage certificate to my Grandmother Marjorie Mundy states that he was born in Athens, Georgia. His death certificate states Macon, Georgia. I don't believe the Macon, Georgia because in 1900 the family he was born into was living in Jackson County, Georgia which is very close to Athens. Also, the information on the marriage certificate was probably provided directly by Alvin or Marjorie.
Letter written by my Grandfather, Alvin Pierce White, Sr. to my father, Robert Mundy White on April 26, 1965
Transcribed by Andrew Robert White, Dec 6, 2005
(my notes are added in parenthesis)

Dear Robert, Judy + Susan,
Hope you will forgive me for not answering your very kind and understanding letter a long time ago. I assure you I did not intend it that way. Your letter told me many things, and gave me many answers to questions I've had in my mind, and heart, for many years.Your work sounds interesting, and I'm sure it will, in the end, be rewarding and, as years go by, become permanently more to your satisfaction and happiness for you and your family. I think you know, by now, that nothing worthwhile comes easy and fast. It takes work and patience to accomplish ____ (?) the goal you set out to reach. I've been trying to do it for years and I didn't reach my goal yet. Maybe, I did not try hard enough, or did not know what goal that I wanted to reach. Even at this late date (age 62), I'm still not sure just what I wanted, or now want.There is this that I am sure of, and I'm eternally gratefull you and Alvin (Jr.) have grown into healthy and strong young men. I know that I had very little to do with it all, but, in spite of all the adverse circumstances, you've made the grade - and you both have young lives of your own to help guide you thru the vast complexities of life, and a very frustrated and confused world. (Grandma White Gifford left him around 1938 or so). There is no doubt in my mind but that you will make the journey that you choose if you but try. In this, I want to wish you all the ultimate.Of course it bothers me not to hear from Alvin (Jr.), but the old adage is: "No news is good news" will have to apply here.Early in March I spent a short time in the hospital with a kidney infection - went back to work and here I am again - this time with a heart condition. However, I'm going home tomorrow and rest for a few weeks, with medication and then another examination, to see if I can go back to work. The doctor and I both believe I will be able to resume where I left off. Believe me, I'm trying.I am enclosing a few pictures, mostly old ones of you kids. Some of which you may have, but since I have two of a kind, I thought you might like to have them. One of your great grandmother on the White side of the family. She was a niece of Gen. R. E. Lee. Her husband took care of his horses in the Civil War. Come to think about it, that was over 100 years ago. When he came back to his farm in Georgia, as a Captain in the Confederate Army, with nothing but the horse under him and some land with which he had no money to operate, he got along however and raised a big family and lived to ripe old age of 97 years. I had the good fortune to know him in his waning years and he told me many stories of the war, which in my opinion, was an unfortunate and vain war. For it not only cost thousands of lives but great devastation of properties and an atmosphere of hatred that, in many of the areas of our country, still exists. I could write a book about its cause, the execution and the aftermath of this most disastrous and most unnecessary war this country ever engaged in.Well nice folks, this is about all from here - except Vera (possibly wife Veronica Loehr) is fine and she has been of untold help in my trying to maintain my health and well being.
Much love and good wishes in which Vera joins me.
Dad.
(It looks as if Grandpa White did not remember his Grandfather William Canady White's age too well. Grandpa White was only 11 years old when his Grandpa White died. Also, I do not know the accuracy of Grandpa Alvin White's claims about his Grandma Amanda Elizabeth Baxter White.)

Alvin's last occupation for 20 years was a Collection Manager for Mission Equities Ins.

His last place of residence was:
19037 Danbury Ave.

2158 Notes for Addison D. CRISLER:
The CRISLER, CRISTLER, CHRISTLER surnames have different spellings which makes it that much more confusing. Absalom in the 1830 census last name was spelt CRISTLER, although I'm sure through out the years there were many mistakes to this surname.

2175 Notes from Jane Lee White letters owned by Rachelle and Peggy Walker:
Letter dated 10 July 1870 to son T.D.O. White talks of William Lee being very sick and having the fever. William, his father, has gone to the doctor for him.
Letter dated 1 May 1871 mentions that William C. White's two oldest chrildren are attending school.

End of Letter Notes.
William Lee Andrew White's middle name of Lee was the maiden name of his Grandmother Jane White. He was referred to as Lee.
William Lee White was married to someone prior to Maggie Sue Martin. The 1900 census shows William and Maggie being married 7 years and Maggie as the mother of two children. There are 3 other children living in the house that are too old to be Maggie's children but young enough to be William's children from another wife. Also William and Maggie are about 13 years apart in age.
In the 1920 census William Lee, Maggie Sue and children Bessie and Theo are living with Lucius B Hawks and Ella White-Hawks. William Lee is listed as father-in-law. That is how I found Ella to be the first daughter of William Lee.
According to his daughter, Bessie May's marriage certificate initially filled out on 18 Dec 1923 both William Lee and Maggie White are residents of Guilford, NC at that time.
Brother Jessie B. White's obituary states that Jessie was survived by two brothers. One of Monroe, Georgia and one of south Georgia. In 1920 and 1930 census records brother Robert T. White was living in Wilcox County, Georgia. Therefore, if the obituary is accurate, William Lee White must have been living in Monroe, Georgia. Since William's wife Maggie died in May of 1927 and William's obituary from High Point, NC states that he just came back to North Carolina it seems as if the information fits. There is a Lee White, age 65, married to a Rella in Monroe, Walton County, Georgia 1930 census record. I believe that this Lee is in fact the same person. Just a couple streets away in Monroe, Georgia in the 1930 census there is a Lizzie Irvin living with her husband Jim. Lee's obituary below mentions a Mrs. Lizzie Irvin as a daughter from his first marriage.
Lee's death certificate from Guilford County, North Carolina has the following information:
Parents: William White and Betsy Baxter both born in Georgia
Informant: Mr. J J Shaw of Randleman, NC
Cause of death: Ruptured Appendix
Last seen alive by Doctor on 4 Apr 1931 at 3:26 p.m.
Trade: Carpenter
Age: 66 days, 4 months, 17 days
Burial, Cremation, or Removal: Commerce, GA on 14 Apr 1931
Note about William's birth date: His headstone in the George L. Martin family cemetery has his birth date listed as 6 Jun 1857 but this is not accurate according to his death cerificate. Also, there are too many census records showing Nov 1864 and 1865. Another interesting note..The headstone was not listed in the book "Jackson County, Georgia Cemetery Records, by James A. and Betty Ann Waddell Mathis published in 1980. However, in the CD of Jackson County cemeteries compliled by Don Sailors in 2000 a headstone is present (with inaccurate dates).
William Lee White's obituary as found in the The High Point Enterprise, Monday April 13, 1931:
William L. White Dies at Hospital, Local Carpenter Passes at Age of 66 After Lengthy Illness-Funeral Held Here Today.William Lee White, 66-year-old carpenter, of this city, died at a local hospital yesteday afternoon at 5:30 o'clock after a lengthy illness. Mr. White first moved to High Point in 1923 from Jackson county, GA., where he was born and reared., but had been away for the past three years until a week or so ago when he returned.He was a member of Centenary Methodist Church, of Macon, GA. Mr. White was twice married, both wives having preceded him to the graves. Children of the first marriage surviving are Mrs. Lizzie Irvin, of Monroe, GA., and Marvin White, of Porterdale, GA., and of the second marriage, H. H. and A. L. White, of Chicago; A. T. White of Albany, N. Y., and Mrs. J. J. Hinshaw, of Randleman.Funeral services were conducted from Yow's Funeral Home here this afternoon at 3:30 o'clock by Rev. J H.

2177 Numerous public trees on ancestry.com list Elizabeth Hill's place of birth as Salt Lake City, Utah or some form of the name. It is extremely doubtful that she was born in Salt Lake City, Utah since that city was not founded until 1847 and in 1745 there probably wasn't any major frontiersmen present in this area. One possible explanation is that it is another place in the east named Salt Lake and over time it was mistakingly attached to the present day city in Utah. HILL, Elizabeth (I18521)
