The coroner told local news station WTVA that the men died of carbon monoxide poisoning after they put a generator under their house in Belmont, Mississippi.
It was raining at the time, and the two men had just recently moved into the home, the news outlet reported.
The power was shut off by the previous owners, who knew the victims, when they moved out.
White and Williamson had borrowed the power generator and apparently placed it under their home to keep it out of the rain.
