There is also a similiar record, also given by Oswald F. White, that shows he died on 31 Jan 1881, also in Missouri at age 73 and in this record he was a blacksmith. Napoleon was named in his grandmother's will 5 Oct 1822 in Accomack Co, VA.(81505) His grandmother Bridget White named him in her will as Napolen White, son of her daughter Nancy White, and left him 25 acres lying in Dolls Swamp that she purchased from the executors of Elijah A.
