Death Records, Census Records

Gayle639

I'm looking for a death record for Addie (Adda , Ada) Louisa Holbert White. Born in Illinois 1864 to William Patterson Holbert. She had 1 child with George M Miller in 1878 Hattie Mae Miller Koontz Reaska.

Addie married Benjamin F White around 1880, they had 1 child Eva Burtina White in 1881. I have no info on Eva Burtina White.

She lived in Putnam County Illinois. I'm also looking for census records for her years 1900+.

Thank You.

Let me start by stating that I'm not saying this isn't possible (I've got my own set of convoluted family connections in my tree).

I'm assuming you're looking at Addie Holbert https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/94YL-VF3George Miller https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/L17C-MPN

I did a quick look at the attached sources and it appears (by the sources) that George married Addie's mother Sophia Plough — who was 22 years his elder. Really?

And in 1880 at the age of 16, Addie married Benjamin White — 21 years her senior?

I wonder if Eva died before 1900 since she's not listed in the 1900 census with her father Benjamin (also assuming she wasn't married).

What sources have you looked at? Does family folklore tell you anything that might help lead us to a record to prove or disprove?

Yes, all of the above is true. I have been researching for several years now, along with my 2nd cousin and a Miller relative.

There's an Eva B White 1880-1956, she lived in LaSalle County, IL. The census states she's an in-law to a Knauer. I have researched that, and she's is not my Eva White.

I recently found a 1900 census with Eva White living with and working as a servant to a Miller. I will be researching that further this week.

Sadly, Addie (my great great grandma) is a true mystery,

I'm looking for descendents of the William Narvel Rutledge family. The Myrtie Iris Burr family. And the Rose Ann Saltzman family. I have info, pics, etc… on these families. And, I'd like to share.
