Summary: Sarah and Phillip White were residents of Bath County, Kentucky. At the time she filed her widow's pension application she was living at a Refugee Camp at Camp Nelson in Jessamine County, Kentucky. Sarah had one child with Phillip by the name of George Christopher White, who was born in 1863. Sarah had been previously married and had a son that was fifteen years old, born from that relationship. It appears his name was Washington. She also lists what appear to be two more children. The writing is faded and difficult to read but it seems to be an eleven year old child named Sandy and seven year old child named Thomas Jefferson. Affidavits from Gabriel Burdett and Nathen Davis on pages 7-8. Affidavits from Thomas Burden and David Robinson on pages 11-12.
