  Father	Alfred Franklin White,   b. 14 Apr 1880, Williamsburg, Whitley, Kentucky ,   d. 6 Sep 1952, Dayhoit, Harlan, Kentucky  (Age 72 years)
  Mother	Mary Jane Freeman,   b. 27 Feb 1880, Whitley County, Kentucky ,   d. 22 Oct 1932, Kayjay, Knox, Kentucky  (Age 52 years)
  Married	4 Jan 1899	Williamsburg, Whitley, Kentucky   [2]
  Notes	A family story has it that they eloped and married in Tennessee, where the age to marry without parental consent was (allegedly) lower. But the actual record of their marriage shows this to be untrue. They were married by the Rev. Henry Patrick in Williamsburg, Whitley County, Kentucky, on 4 Jan 1899. The record includes two laid-in notes handwritten on small pieces of ruled paper. One reads "Jan the 4. 1899. We have no objection to Alfred White and Mary Freeman a mering [sic]. John Freeman, Stase Freeman". The other is substantially illegible, but it's clearly signed "J. N. White".

• Notes

  We have some doubt that Mary White was actually born when her mother was 52.
