About 1900 James Whit and his family moved to Miller County, Arkansas. On a cold grey day in December 1908, Mary Frances and her son Luney were in bed with pneumonia. To take the chill out of the hose, logs were stacked high in the fireplace. Escaping cinders caught the singles on fire. The house was destroyed. Mary Frances and Luney were taken out in the snow and later removed four miles by wagon to her step-son Bob Endsley's home where they died.
