- Quote: "Williams, David Andrew, was
born in Hardin Co. Tenn. Sept 28,1845, he was married to Mary C. Callaway
July 13,1878. His affliction was paralysis. In 1884 it began in his hands
and gradually diffused itself through his whole system. His long affliction
and the peculiarity of his case might have been much profit to the medical
fraternity had it watched the stages of his disease. His affliction was
four years and five months standing. His flesh all virtually perished away.
The last two years of his illness he was entirely helpless. In the year
1855 he professed religion and joined the Methodist Church, and died in
peace. January 23, 1888 aged 43 years, 4 months and 15 days. He was the
son of Mrs. Lucinda Hitchcock.(The Southern Standard, 2-10-1888, p3c3)His
father was Wright Williams and his mother was Lucinda Clem. He had 2 sons
Willie Williams and Rubin (Ruben) Ned Williams.
- David Williams married Martha L Dunn on June
27, 1869, had a daughter with her in 1869, in Clark County, Arkansas, Mary
Etta William, or (Marietta) Williams and was widowed. On 7/13/1878, he
married Mary C DUNN Callaway, also a widow with a daughter. I think it
is quite possible that Martha and Mary were sisters, with Mary being slightly
older, but have been unable to conclusively prove a family connection."

Here is Lucinda's Obituary.
On Wednesday July 8, 1903 at the home of her grand-daugther, Mrs.
Sterling Elder, three miles east of Hollywood, Mrs. Lucinda H. Hitchcock,
aged 84 years. Miss Lucinda Clem was born in Tenn., and was the oldest
of sixteen childern. At the early age of 14 she professed religion and joined
the M. E. Church of which she has since been and constant and zealous worker.
In 1842 she married Wright Williams who only lived five years. Again
in 1848 she married Lorenza Hitchcock. She was the mother of five
childern, only one son, W. H. Williams, surviving. She leaves
five grand-children, ten great-grandchildren, five brothers, three sisters
and her friends were many for she was loved by all who knew her. Mrs. Hitchcock
was one fo the most devoted Christians we have ever known. She had often
remarked the during 70 years service for her Master she was never tired
of work. For her the work was a pleasure. She had suffered untold agony
for months and while we cannot understand why the Lord sent such suffering
to one whose life has always been so pure, we can only bow in humble submission
to Him who doeth all things for the best and feel assured that she is at
perfect rest. |
