TN Bible and Family Records, A TN Bicentennial project, 1996, pp 370, 371, includes the blacks owned by this family, 27 in all. This book states all 19 children were born to Jane Walker. She had 13 sons and 6 daughters. This material was copied and edited due to duplication and stray papers contained in the box Howard and Mary White brought from his father's [Bruce-White] estate in Lewisburg, Marshall Co TN, but some part of the pages were damaged, then recopied. Most of these people were from Middle TN- Giles, Marshall and Maury Counties. Campbell White Pennington, retired professor, living in Austin, TX is writing a book about his family lines above.
