註釋The Landmark White House, said to have been the 'first White House west of Albany, ' was built by James Butterfield in 1792. The Major, while stationed at Cherry Valley, was captured by Indians and later was freed in prisoner exchange at Fort Niagre. The new building was on the first road to 'Peth' (Hartwick) that came to the west from Cooperstown, along over the hill to Toddsville, then over Christian Hill along the northern line of the town down a hill by the Dominion Farm to the new inn. ...and so, John A. Mott begins his historic journey, covering Lifew at White House Community, with stories and insight into the hardships and joys of a prior era.
