Notes

One reference says DeWitt was born in Vanderburgh County, Indiana, and that he died in Oakland City, Indiana.

DeWitt's wife was Sarah Elizabeth Elwyn. Sarah's mother died when Sarah was five so she was taken into the home of James T. Elwyn, her half brother. Sarah kept house for James after his wife died. James and Sarah took DeWitt in as a boarder when he was a student at Oakland City College. Sarah and DeWitt later were married.

DeWitt moved from Gondola to Snakey Point, and then to Oakland City, Indiana.
