We derive the effective temperatures and surface gravities of WD0837+218 and WD0837+185 (LB5959) to be 17845 +555 -565K and log g = 8.48 +0.07 -0.08 and 14170 +1380 -1590K and log g =8.46 +0.15 -0.16 respectively. Using theoretical evolutionary tracks we estimate the masses and cooling ages of these white dwarfs to be 0.92+/-0.05Msun and 280 +40 -30Myrs and 0.90+/-0.10Msun and 500 +170 -100Myrs respectively.
