Notes:

Known as Mr. Mack. Was a logger, who recalls the days when rafting logs down the Sabine River to Orange was an annual trip. A log drive was an exciting adventure, full of surprises, but it was no place for any man or boy who could not swim well or who was afraide of a cold plunge into the deep waters, often full of timber for miles on end, which could be dangerous. Parents of one son and daughters Mrs. Edna White, Mrs. Bessie Kelly of Beaumont; Mrs. Essie Hamm and Mrs. Maida Harper of Dallas; Mrs. Cleo Hill of Tyler and Mrs. Winnie Tatom of Pineland.

At the time of the 1930 census, they were living in Jasper County, Texas.
