| Notes |
- MARRIAGE: Copy of Marriage License in the possession of Dayle White.
Ellen Elizabeth Landeen was born in Alvdalen, Kopparberg, Sweden on Ju n e 18, 1891 to Daniel Larson Landeen and Karin Larsson Landeen.
The family immigrated to the United States in May 1900 and settled in t h e East MillCreek area.
When Ellen was in her teens she secured employment with the Rosenbaum fa m ily as a nursemaid for the children. Mr. Rosenbaum was in the wholesal e t ailor business and was reputed to be quite wealthy. At the time Elle n me t her future husband, James White SR., Ellen was said to be fluent i n thr ee languages.
She married James White Sr. on July 2, 1909 in the Salt Lake County Cou r t House at the age of 18. At the time of her marriage, James White Sr . wa s in the Army and stationed at Ft. Douglas in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Their first Child, James, was born June 7, 1910. They later were station e d at Fort Russell, Cheyenne, Wyoming, where they had government quarte r s assigned to them and were quite happy.
After being discharged from the army they moved back to Salt Lake City w h ere their second son, Guy, was born. (April 23, 1912)
Apparently the military was more appealing than civilian life so he re-e n listed in the service but went into the Navy and was stationed at Yerb a B uena Island, San Francisco, California. From there they went to the P uge t Sound Navy Yard, Bremerton, Washington where they arrived in the su mme r of 1913. They rented a nice little cottage on a hill overlooking Pu ge t Sound. The Mormon missionaries found that Ellen and her family wer e fro m Utah and would visit quite frequently and were gratefully accepte d.
Later they built a home of their own on 6th St. and Naval Ave. which a t t hat time was on the very fringe of the forest which surrounded Bremer ton . Ellen's brother, Fred, came to Bremerton from Salt Lake and helpe d in t he construction of their home and also to enjoy the great fishin g which w as practically on their door step.
Everything was wonderful for over five years, and then tragedy struck. T h e dreaded influenza epidemic claimed Ellen on December 10, 1918 at th e ag e of 27. She is now at rest in the Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park in Sal t Lak e City, Utah.
