- {From Marian Williams 1992:]
Josephine Christy James tells us that Darwin White was in the the Union side of the Civil War and a member of the Grand Army of the Republic and is said to be buried in Jefferson Military Cemetery Saint Louis Misouri.[maryabwhiteanc.ged]
Darwin and Olivia moved to WI around 1852 after selling their land in Mount Holly, VT. They went to Waushara Co. where they were living at the time of the Civil War.
Darwin was in the 18th WI Volunteers in the Civil War, enlisting at 43 years of age on 18 Dec 1861 at Berlin, WI for a three year term. He gave his residence as Poysippi, Waushara County, WI. He was mustered into the military service of the United States on 22 Jan 1862 by Capt Trowbridge at Milwaukee, WI according to his Certificate of Service, issued by the State Historical Society of WI. The 18th Infantry Regiment was organized at Camp Trowbridge, Milwaulkee, and mustered into the US Service on 15 Mar 1862. The regiment left WI for St. Louis on 30 Mar, then went to Pittsburg landing, TN on 31 Mar. On 5 Apr. the regiment was attached to the 2nd Brigade, 6th Division, Army of the Tennessee to Jul 1862 The next day he was wounded and captured in the Battle of Shiloh and taken to an Alabama prison camp. He was later released, but had contracted Typhoid. He was taken to St Louis, MO where he died in the military hospital there.
He was buried in the military cemetary there, according to his CW Pension papers.
According to his Certificate of Service issued by the State Historical Society of Wisconsin: "Private White was reported missing in action on April 6, 1862 at the battle of Shiloh, Tennessee. A special report, dated October 29, 1862 states he was a prisoner of war. In December 1862 he was reported dead by a Surgeon of the St. Louis , Missouri General Hospital. An inventory of effects and final statement report indicates Private White died on the 16th day of July, 1862, at St Louis, Missouri, due to typhoid fever. The Roll of Honor, Volume 20, page 390, shows he is buried in the cemetary at Jefferson Barracks, Missoure. He is buried in Section 11, Grave 10, having been removed from the Wesleyan Cemetary at St. Louis." Jefferson Barracks National Cemetary is located at 2900 Sheridan Road, St. Louis Missoure 63125. This is supposed to be a beautiful cemetary according to a national genealogist who wrote about this cemetary in a computer on-line article.
- This White family can be traced to the "Mayflower."

- There was a Dan Peck who was active in the Mount Holly Congregational Church , trying to keep it together after the minister left, until he himself left, about 1851. Dan Peck may have been a relative of Amarilla's. Or they may have been married in the Baptist Church. The records don't say.

Olivia Patch, b. 1824, Wallingford, Rutland, Vermont U.S.A. , d. 06 May 1879, Auroraville, Waushara, Wisconsin U.S.A. (Age 55 years) [6, 7, 8, 9, 10] |

17 Mar 1846 |
Wallingford, Rutland, Vermont U.S.A. |
Notes |
- They were married in Wallingford, which is just west of Belmont (formerly Mechanicville) which is in the west side of Mount Holly township. There is a church still in Wallingford, as of late Oct 1996, which could have been where they were married. The Whites were living in the Belmont area, but it has not been determined where the Patches were living. There were some Patch families in the Ludlow area, just east of Mount Holly, township. Some of this White family lived in that area also, along with some unrelated White families.
