When Harvard Law School placed her seal of approval upon his professional education, he returned to his native city and has there practiced his profession during the years which have since intervened, 1911-18. He is the son of Richard Olney and Sarah A. (Price) Moulton, the former deceased; he is a descendant of William Moulton, the founder of the Moultons of New England. Moulton is an ancient English family name, tracing to a Thomas Moulton, traditional head of the house, whose name is found in Domesday Book (1086) as the owner of an estate called 'Galeshore'. The name is common in the counties of Lincoln, Yorkshire, Gloucester, Kent, Devon, Norfolk and London and, as these counties were the stronghold of the Puritan faith, the Moultons, no doubt, were among that strict section. Ephraim Butler Moulton, of the seventh generation, and sixth child of Cromwell and Abigail Wilson (Olney) Moulton, was born January 25, 1823, and died March 26, 1888. He learned carriage building in a Providence shop on Burgess street and later on established a wheelwright shop of his own at Eddy, Friendship and Dowance [sic] streets, also had a shop in Olneyville and a carriage depository on Stewart street. In the early days, he did all the repair work on the horse cars of the city, and for forty-six years was in active business, as a carriage builder, many vehicles bearing his name as builder being sent to foreign lands. He was originally a Whig in politics, later a Republican, and for two terms represented his ward in City Council. He married Maria A. Olney, born November 23, 1820, died in 1889, daughter of Elisha and Caroline (Potter) Olney. Mr. and Mrs. Moulton were the parents of six children: William H., born in 1842, died May 26, 1860; Lucy, born in 1844, died September 28, 1848; Albert Vallett, born December 10, 1846, appointed inspector of customs, United States Internal Revenue Service, for the port of Providence, in 1894, married Mary Allen Whitford, daughter of Thomas W. and Mary E. (Cole) Whitford; Sarah, born June 9, 1848, married, November 19, 1874, Marvin E. Allen; Richard Olney, of further mention; Wilson, born in 1853.
