At his 1958 funeral, he was eulogized by College Dean Virgil Eady, who stated, "Billy Mitchell's friends included people in many stations of life—Congressmen, US Senators, Methodist Bishops, great and influential business and professional men and women." Mitchell family lore, supported by US census records, asserts that Henry Mitchell was in fact born in 1883, not 1886.

As Ms. Williams remarks, "Well, that just tells you what 'family' meant in those days; anybody working together in the same household counted as family, even if half the 'family' owned the other half!"

To this day, however, very few Oxford African Americans have been willing to enter the structure, which they associated with a "white-washed" version of history. See Auslander 2001.
15.	In an unpublished account, Professor Stone's son G.W.W. Stone Jr. recalls that Louisa was purchased as a "young colored woman" by G.W.W. Stone Sr., when his daughter Tudie was born in April 1841. "She became our head nurse-washwoman and mammy. We all thought she was one of the best niggers [sic] ever born. And we think so yet. She couldn't have loved her own children any more than she did us. And we loved her just like she was kin to us. She married a man named Sam Means. He was a blacksmith and behaved himself until after the surrender. Then he was unkind to Louise. He became too free. When she died in 1882 Father's children put a tombstone over her grave." (G.W.W. Stone, Jr. [1939])
