Bio

11 Sep 1898. Claude Lee White is born in Durant, IT, to Jasper and Maggie. Durant is north of Bonham, across the Red River. In later years, Claude's birthplace will be variously cited as OK, TX, NM, LA, and AR, but much depends on who supplies the information and when. In the 1910 Census, it is Oklahoma and his mother as the likely source. Claude himself will cite Durant in his WW2 draft registration card. Durant is the administrative capital of Choctaw Nation. However, on his Social Security application, he cites Bonnam [sic], Texas. 24 Mat 1967. Claude Lee White dies and is interred at Memorial Park. Keeping up the tradition of being hard to pin down, someone listed in the memorial book his birthplace as Louisiana. Margie always had the feeling that her father was hiding something and wondered if she had half-siblings from a previous marriage 1900 Census.
