NotesLouisa White was placed in the home of Hugh Lauchlin and Effie (Munroe) Wilson of Kennington Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada. She became part of the Wilson household, was happy and had a very good life in Kennington Cove. Louisa also quickly learned to speak Gaelic, a language she used all her life.

Around 1920, she married Daniel J. MacMullin from New Boston, who was close to thirty years older than his bride. Together Daniel and Louisa had a family of nine children: 1) Mary, who married Albert Bessett; 2) John Lauchie, who died as a very young child; 3) Rosey, who married Hector McCuish; 4) Effie, who married Wallace Warren; 5) Ernie, who married Annie Worthington; 6) Isobel, who married Gerald Donovan; 7) Daniel, who married Sheila Mailman; 8) Katie Bell, who married Angus Hall; and 9) Peggy, who married Earl Hall.

Annie White was sent to live in North Sydney, and, in time, she returned to England. Annie remained in contact with Louisa over the years, as did other family members in England, including Louisa?s mother, Rose White. Some years before she died, Louisa's nephew Ernest made a trip to Canada to visit her. Louisa was happy with her life in Canada. She lived in New Boston most of her life, remaining there a few years even after her husband passed away in 1947 at age 75. Like the Wilsons, Louisa loved company and her New Boston home was open to family and friends. Eventually, she moved to Catalone with her son, Daniel. In 1954, Louisa moved to Glace Bay to live with her daughter, Effie, and son-in-law, Wallace Warren. Louisa (White) MacMullin died on March 3, 1989, she was just 9 days short of her 87th birthday.
