David was an early settler of Fulton Co. settling here in 1834. David is also buried in Jordan Cemetery in the next row and died Jan 22 1898 and stone has a GAR marker. His wife's stone has the name "Tryphena" (Maggie must have been nickname) and she died Feb 4 1864 at age 40y.  David was constable of Amboy Township for several years. In 1870 David is listed in Branch County, MI Census
with wife Celicia L. In 1880 census he is back in Amboy Township, 
Fulton County, Ohio and his wife is listed as  "Maggie" age 55 which
I believe is still Louisa, both  the1870 and 1880 census have her born
in NY.

The platt map for Amboy Twp in 1875 has D. White in section 7 and across the road to south it has M. White in section 18. In 1858 platt D. White is also in the same parcel of section 7 but the parcel in section 18 south has P. White.

Then the 1888 platt map shows the parcel of section 7 is now owned by C. C. White and the parcel of section 18 has Mary E. White. Then in the 1903 platt section the parcel in section 7 is no longer owned by White, it is owned by a Jonathon L. Bilhor, but the parcel in section 18 still has name Mary White.

David, the son of Park White became a noted hunter in the wilds 
of this country, but since the advancement of civilization and the woodman's axe, game in later years has become so scarce to 
yield no profit. He sought the wilderness of Northern Michigan, 
and makes hunting profitable.
