Life

Louisa S. Owens was born in Putnam County, Georgia, on 2 August 1806, a daughter of John N. Owens and his wife Elizabeth, according to the FamilySearch tree, which gives the date and place without an attached source; her Find a Grave memorials name her Louisa Serepta Owens White.1 On 23 August 1825, in Putnam County, she married William M. White; the marriage indexes give her name as "Louisa S. W. Owen."2 The tree names eleven children, born between 1826 and 1851, among them John Thomas, George Augustus, William M. Jr., Zachary Taylor and Louisa Virginia Georgia Ann.3 The federal census of 1850 lists Louisa White in her husband's household in District 697 of Troup County, Georgia, the Rough Edge District.4 Her husband died on 12 July 1856, and in 1860 she was enumerated as the head of her own household, "L S White," in the same district.5 The census of 1870 places her at Troup Factory, in Troup County, and that of 1880 lists her in the household of her son Taylor White, in an entry the index reads as "Louiza Satterwhite."6 Inference That reading is very probably a misreading of "Louiza S. White."6 She died in Troup County on 22 May 1887 and was buried at Pine Mountain, Harris County, Georgia.7 The Georgia death records of two of her children, Taylor White in 1919 and George Ann Williams in 1923, name their mother as Louisa Owen and Luiza Owens.8
