The article says George W. White became reclusive after his wife's death.2"Oxford Artist George White Attained Widespread Fame", Oxford Press, 24 June 1954, Butler County Historical Society Museum, Hamilton, Ohio.
"At the insistence of his friends, he went to New York for a year... His 'Cleopatra,' fortunately, had been saved from the fire, and this he placed in the Hamilton Hotel for some time... In 1887 he exhibited a small oil painting of old Fort Hamilton as it appeared in 1795... White's portrait of John Woods hands in the Butler County Museum in Hamilton... Miami University has recently been given a woodland scene by White. Don Shera has the head of Anna Matson, his mother, done by White when she was a little girl."
The article says that George W. White was living in Covington, Kentucky, when Woods Museum in Cincinnati was destroyed by fire in 1857.3Jane Sikes Hageman, Ohio pioneer artists: a pictorial review, Cincinnati, Ohio: Ohio Furniture Makers, ca. 1993.

"About 1 o'clock this morning, the Second Ward watchmen discovered that the lecture room of the Museum, in Apollo Building, in the corner of Fifth and Walnut streets, was on fire. In an instant, almost, the flames spread throughout the upper part of the building, and before the alarm was given by the bells, the whole of the building occupied by the Museum was on fire...
Thieves were plenty, and although Captain Early promptly called a number of watchmen from their beats, and placed them around the fire, there were many articles stolen...
Perry & Hargrave, George White and others, lost considerable by the removal of their goods, although the buildings they occupied were not on fire.
The fire was no doubt the work of an incendiary..."11Charles Theodore Greve, Centennial History of Cincinnati and Representative Citizens, Chicago: Biographical Publ. Co., 1904, pp. 738-739, Public Library of Cincinnati and Hamilton County, Cincinnati, Ohio.

" G. G. White [sic]--We suppose it is not generally known that the talented artist whose name is at the head of this article, is in our midst. Yet such is the case. He has been busily engaged for several months painting the portraits of a great many of our citizens, among which are those of several who have been dead for months and years. The portraits of Hon. John Woods, Wm. Hunter, Esq. and others, are said to be life-like.
We would call attention to his fine painting of Cleopatra, now hanging in the Hamilton Hotel. It is one of the most finished productions we ever saw, and certainly entitles the accomplished artist to a name among those who are better known and more frequently spoken of. We hope Mr. White will be induced to remain in Hamilton. His room is on the second floor of Beckett's building, west end."131870 U.S. Census, Hamilton, Butler Co., Ohio, stamped page 125, Ancestry.com.
