The book, "James County, A Lost County of Tennessee," edited by Polly W. Donnelly, published in 1983, relates: "Harrison Earl White (1871-1938) operated a trading boat on the Tennessee River around the turn of the century. In 1907, he opened a general store in Birchwood, known as H.E. White & Co. Hayes McCallie, Doyle Bare, and Walter Bischoff joined the firm that year. The Birchwood Post Office was in the rear of the store... In 1920, McCallie, Bischoff, and Bare formed a partership and opened their own General Store by that name. Bischoff later purchased the building in the early 1930's and lived there until it was destroyed by fire in 1939. Later, Bischoff bought the oldest house in Birchwood which had been build by Joseph Gass in 1836. In 1983, Walter's widow, Rebecca, was still living in that house."
