1. Bertha White, born about 1856, Hamburg, Erie Co, NY

Notes:

Per 1850 census, Hoel was living in Hamburg, 33, born Vermont, with his wife, Sylvia J. White, 25, born Canada. In 1855, per New York state census, he was in Hamburg, with his wife, H. White, 29, born Erie County, New York. In 1860 he was in Hamburg, with his wife, Hepzibah White, 35, born New York. Among other children, Bertha was also in the household, age 2, suggesting that Hepzibah (vs. any of Hoels three other wives) was her mother.

After Hepzibah, Hoel married two women name Laura (per Find A Grave, Nov 2023). One of them died 10 Oct 1874 at Hamburg - Laura A. White, aged 55.¹ Another, who was affectionately called "Grandma White", died 25 Apr 1923 in Buffalo, where she had been living for 10 years. Her grand-daughter was Mrs. Helen Hipple of Buffalo.²

The first Laura must have been Laura Parker, per obit of her step daughter, Bertha White. The obit said that Bertha's mother [sic, stepmother] was a sister of "Aunt" Amanda Wheelock, who was the wife of Harmon Wheelock of Hamburg. Amanda was the daughter of Anson Parker and Lydia Baldwin.³ Laura was living with Harmon and Amanda in 1850, Hamburg, and in 1860, East Hamburg.
