Mary was 1/2 Italian. Her mother�s last name was LOUIS her father�s name of course was WHITE. Mary was probably married in 1871 to John MALCOM because her daughter Etna MALCOM was born in Trumball,Ill. 1-19-1872. ( Etna married Hilliard GAINES and had Margie and Paul Gaines, who both married Smiths, and other children, see family tree) Mary had two sons by John MALCOM; Robert Virgil Malcolm 1-3-1874/4-5- 1937, and J.C. Malcolm 3-6-1875. John Malcolm(might have served in the Civil War) must have died sometime between 1875 and 1881 because the next date I have is the birth of Mary�s fourth child, Charles H. Walters, born 1882. Hilliard GAINES b. 5-2-1869, Carmi, IL, was the son of John GAINES and Tabitha HOLDERBY. John GAINES b. TN may have served in the Civil War, Union. Tabitha HOLDERBY was the daughter of Nathaniel HOLDERBY b. 1811 and Nancy Jane HARVEY b.1813. Nancy Jane HARVEY was the daughter of Betsy Felix b. 1774 VA and Mr Harvey.

White ( Malcom, Walters, Hester) - she married John Malcom and had Etna Malcom on 1-19-1872, Trumbull, IL (a town in White County that is no longer in existance), (3 brothers, one sister) Etna m.

Dollie and Paul Gaines recieved money from the Holderby estate until the 1950�s when they signed some papers that Etna Malcom Gaines told them to because they would get a cash settlement and they never recieved another thing.
