He moved to Stevenson county, I1linois, in 1835. He was married to Miss Amanda Barber on Sept. 4th 1854, at Rock Grove, Ill. To them two sons and three daughters were born, all of whom survive. He spent the four years from 1860-1864 in California. In 1805 they came to Wyoming where they made their home ever since, with a short exception when they lived at Newton, Iowa. Mr. Williams confessed his faith in Christ and took the vows of Christian discipleship, and became a member of the Presbyterian church in Wyoming Feb. 18th, 1877, in which church he has lived a true and humble christian life, to the day of his death, between 12:00 and 1:00 o'clock, Tuesday, June 18th, 1901. For quite a while he was sexton of the church, until his final sickness compelled him to give it up nearly two years, ago. In this connection I could not help recall the words of the Psalmist (84:10) "For day in thy courts is better than thousand. I had rather be a door keeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of wickedness." We believe those words expressed the desire of his heart and that to-day he has entered the heavenly house of God, and is employed there in some works for his Lord. "For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly, O, Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee." Mr. Williams always, impressed me,in the many conversations I have had with him, even before he was sick, as being a man who was firm and steadfast in living up to the standard of what he thought was right. He was very conscientious. Although he shrank from taking a prominent part in the christian life in the way of speaking, yet his heart was right, and his faith and love wore genuine, and he believed in being true as he was, to the christian life. He often spoke of those things when he had no thought of death, I have heard him express his faith in his savior, and his own sense of unworthiness very frequently. He will be missed as a kind neighbor, a good man, and a sincere christian, to whom, I believe, an abundant entrance has been given to the good land promised the followers of the meek and lowly Jesus.
