Lewis R. White of Martin Co., IN has been my "brick wall" for many years. He
m/1 Eliza Wolfington, 1847 in Martin Co., IN. From the 1850 census it appears they had
one child, Ann. In 1856 he married Mary Hendrickson. Their marriage record was recorded
twice with her name as Mary Hendrix and also as Mary Hendrixon. Later her children
recorded her name as Mary Hawkins on their marriage records. From the 1860 census after
he married Mary, it appears that Lewis R. White and Eliza perhaps also had a son, Abram.
Lewis R. White and Mary had John Thomas, James, Joseph, Rhoda, Mary, Rachel and George.
Mary and family are listed in 1870 in neighboring Dubois Co. with a James White listed as
the head. So, I do not know if Lewis died about 1869 or if his name was recorded wrong.
Lewis R. White indicated on the 1850 and 1860 Martin Co., IN that his birth state was
Kentucky. Knowledge concerning any of this family would be greatly appreciated. I have
found most of the children but cannot find anything more about Lewis R. White, his
parentage, date of death or burial. Thanks. Eileen M. Bridges 21Emb07(a)consolidated.net
