Death Notices From THE MONTGOMERY DAILY ADVERTISER
Transcribed by Larry E. Caver, Jr.

January 8, 1881:

Died, in this city last Thursday morning, Mrs. Mary WILLIAMS, aged nearly 85 
years. The deceased was the mother of Hon. Thomas WILLIAMS, our 
representative in Congress, Dr. Robert WILLIAMS and Mrs. Milton COOPER. She had been a 
devoted Baptist for 73 years, having been baptized at Petersburg, Virginia, in 
1808… She was baptized while snow was on the ground, and as she arose from the 
water she expressed a desire that she might die and be buried while the face of 
nature was covered with snow. The snow was four inches deep when she was 
buried. -Wetumpka Times
