E-mail dated January 26, 2004 from Sandra Hood:
"I have one small correction to make in your work. Henry's son Jesse was not named William Jesse. I think Winkie White did that, but the William in that family is William Jeremiah, as you have. Please let me know about Henry's
marriage. He died April 6,1869 in Banks Co. GA His son Wm. Jeremiah was a partner with his father Henry in "Henry White and Son", but Jesse was the administrator of the estate. Thank you for telling me about your very interesting work." Sandra Hood

Henry married Lavinia Gray, daughter of William Gray and Rachel Smith, on 27 Sep 1824 in South Carolina. (Lavinia Gray was born in 1805 ².)
