She was born October 10, 1826; her father died about 1851, and her mother, who survives, is in her eighty-seventh year, and lives with our subject.

Mr. Williams was brought up to the Quaker faith. In his early life he taught school in the winter, and farmed in the summer, farming having formed his chief occupation in life. He first bought seventy-eight acres of land in Logan County, Ohio, which he afterward sold and purchased saw mill, which proved to be an unsuccessful venture. He then came to Hardin County and bought forty-five acres of land. He subsequently added to his purchase and now owns 200 acres mostly of improved land.
