Notes |
- He died after only 10 years of marriage, leaving Delia with 4 small boys. In a letter to Walburga after Francis died leaving 5 small children she mentions, "I think I should have laid down and died after my husband's death if it had not have been for the children Francis was about the age of little Lawrence then and I had to look after him And it seemed to take my mind off of my trouble some which in such circumstances seems overwhelming but there was always a way provided for me even when it seemed there was no way." She also mentioned that she sort of expected her son Francis to die early and probably of consumption. Perhaps Wilmer died of consumption as many people did in those days. No record of how he died has been found.
No dates are given on the headstone.
This land was purchases at auction from Wood Co. for $1.00.

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.
