Issues

 * Which inline citation does the second source point to?
 * I've removed the Maxwell source. It does contain brief mentions of White, but is none of this information was used in this article. Thank you for the catch! -- West Virginian   (talk)  13:42, 6 September 2015 (UTC)


 * Are you sure reference #32 is reliable?
 * Reference #32 was an exhaustive inventory of the cemeteries in Hampshire County performed by local historians and volunteers alike. I photographed the headstones in the cemetery so the photographs can vouch for the information provided by that source as well. Thank you for the catch though! -- West Virginian   (talk)  13:42, 6 September 2015 (UTC)


 * What illness he died from?
 * White died as a result of arteriosclerosis. Myocarditis also contributed to his prolonged illness but was not the cause of his death. I used his death record to substantiate this and have made this more clear in the text. Thank you for noticing this! -- West Virginian   (talk)  13:42, 6 September 2015 (UTC)


 * It is unecessary to put cites like this "The sun is red.[1] The sun is hot.[1]"
 * I've consolidated the inline citations per your suggestion. -- West Virginian   (talk)  13:42, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
