Notes

William E. Withers kept a journal. One of the things he recorded in it was the words of some of the folksongs of the era. Fortunately, these came to the attention of one Ben Gray Lumpkin and he published them in 1969. According to Mr Lumpkin, this journal contained "155 pages of mathematical tables for use in measuring land, for gauging various farm products, computing discount of 'rebate' and for conversion of decimal fractions to 'vulgar' fractions." It also contains an "Age Book" which listed birthdates of Nathan, Nancy, Mary G., William E. and Thomas W. Withers. It lists the birthdates of William F, Robert T. and Louisa J. Pentecost. It lists that George W. was born but did not show a date. The next page contains birthdates for William E.'s children and his wife, Hannah. This journal was in the possession of Mrs Lawrence H. Withers of Hugo, Colorado in 1969. Fortunately Mr. Lumpkin persuaded Mrs Withers to allow a copy to be made of the "Age Book" and given to the Virginia Historical Society where I saw it.
