His father was William Allen and mother Pheobe Horton. He was married many years ago to Mary Jane Price, daughter of Leroy M. Price. He is survived by five children: Mrs. W. A. White of Monticello, GA. Mrs J. G. Hardy, of Ben Hill, GA. Mrs. Lucy Millen, Mrs. Kelsey Johnson, and Miss Maggie Allen, of Mechanicsville, GA. He moved early in life to Mechanicsville, GA. and spent most of his life in that community, except in his declining days, when he lived with his children. He served in the War Between The States, as a brave and courageous Confederate soldier, and was at one time wounded, which no doubt hastened him to his grave. His church membership was the Mt. Zion Christian Church. He was a deacon in this church at time of his death. He was devoted to his church, and was a firm believer that Jesus died for the sins of the world, and rose again that all who believe in Him should not perish but have life eternal. His death occurred at the home of his sister Mrs. John C. Key, in Monticello, GA., Jan. 8th, 1912. His last resting place on earth is in Mt. Zion Christian Church Cemetery, at Mechanicsville, GA., beside that of his life companion. His body lies there gently sleeping while the Georgia pine sings its sad anthem to the host of the unreplying dead. " Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day; and not to me only, but unto all them that love His appearing."

News William Austin White, 71 one of Monticello's prominet and beloved residents, died at his home on Covington Road Wednesday, November 15.

It was many, many years ago--1815, I believe the family record tells us--- was born at Mechanicsville, GA. Mr. William Page White. He had been a resident here for 89 winters, Dec. 31, last. Only last Saturday March 11th, at 2 o'clock a.m., his soul deserted its old building, and took its flight to another world, which if we are to judge--rest with its Maker in that great and eternal city Heaven. His death was sad indeed, not because he was not prepared to meet and stand the realities of the future, but sad because his useful, sweet life here was brought to a close. Because of this, God had selected him for a long and happy life; his neighbors loved him so; he will be missed so much. He had been a veteran of two wars--the Indian and War Between The States. He served in Captain Lane's Company of the 38th Georgia Militia in the Creek War, muster roll dated May 24, 1836 Jasper County GA., and also served in the Civil War. He was laid to rest in the" White Cemetery". There the Georgia pine sings its anthem to the unreplying dead; there the honeysuckle casts its sweet fragrance in their loving Remembrance. He leaves behind to morn his loss and follow him one daughter and two sons. We extend to the bereaved family our deepest sympathy in the loss of their father.

AL Census.I know Arrington had a brother named Henry because he married Henry's widow,Caroline Sutton Phillips.She was his third and! last wife.She was the sister of Arrington's first wife,Martha Sutton Phillips,also my direct ancestor.Burrell Phillips,an other son of Isham and Mary,was born about 1822.An other boy,Kinchen,has no dates I can discover.Who then were the three females between 10-15?Daughters of Isham and Mary?Robert Reilford Phillips married Darkus Eldridge in 1835 in Twiggs GA. I do not think any of these girls were young wives of the sons.Isham's sister,Milberry,married Mark Faulk.The Faulks and the Phillips family left Twiggs Co.GA in a wagon train in 1844.They settled in Barbour Co.AL where they appear on the 1850 Census in the Faulk's District near Elamville.Thank-you for reading my query and good hunting to all
