The below is a distant possibility to be L. C. Brazile White. The 3 year old boy was born June 1, 1866-June 1-1867 and conceived Sep. 65 to Sep. 66. He could be named after the William White who married her in 1866.

1875 Marriage License in Murray County,
Georgia (Chattsworth) adjacent to Whitfield.
A. J. White and Salley Taylor, issued 8th April 1875
by W. H. Ramey, Ordinary. Married 12 April by C. D. Gilbert,
J.P.
(Comment: I continue to imagine, without evidence, that William
White married and lived with Mary before disappearing, perhaps
in 1875 to marry Sarah, otherwise how did Jim “listen to
them tell stories about the Turk ship around the fire”?
This is the only license I found anywhere around showing a
marriage in 1875 between a White and a Sally somebody. A
motivated man could walk from Dalton to Chatsworth.)
