Eugene John WILLIAMS was born 4 January 1836 in NY. He is listed in the 1850 census for Utica (Oneida) NY as a student with John PRENTICE (age 60) and Cornelia W. PRENTICE (age 49) along with several other boys listed as students. Eugene WILLIAMS married Amelia Jerusha OLMSTE(A)D in Binghamton (Broome) NY in 1860. He later lived in New Jersey, Springfield OH, and possibly in Chattanooga TN and Indiana. Among other jobs he worked as a railroad express agent, at one point for American Express. He was a Mason. By 1905 Amelia J. WILLIAMS is listed alone in the Springfield OH directory, and in 1910 she is listed on the Peoria IL census as a widow with her son Laurel O. WILLIAMS.
