This is what I heard about Isaac White, known as Ike, from my mother. Isaac's sister Lily married William Lane Ormand, my mother's grandfather. William Lane's sister Josephine married Isaac White: brother and sister married brother and sister. Isaac and William went into business together: they owned a feed store in Bessemer City. The store went bankrupt and William sold his farm to pay the debts. Around this same time Josephine died in childbirth. William with no farm and Isaac with no wife, the Ormands moved in with the Whites in a house on the corner of Maryland and Inman Avenues in Bessemer City. Isaac was pushed out of the Presbyterian Church for playing the banjo and drinking liquor. He joined the Lutheran Church. William Lane built a house on Maryland Ave next to the White house. My grandmother Irene and her sister Mary lived in that house until their deaths. My mother and her two sisters grew up in that house. They had a garden and kept chickens and harvested pecans. I visited many times as a child. That house still stands. The White house burned down in the 1950s. A smaller house was built on the lot where Isaac's daughter Anita lived, and so did her daughter Betty Jo Morris.
