ALFRED V. WILLIAMS
 
Alfred V. Williams, whose death was announced in the Independent last week, 
was born in Rockport, Missouri, January 3, 1853, and died at Portland, Oregon, 
on March 11, 1930, after an illness from heart trouble which extended back for 
about two years.
 
At the age of 14 years he began as an apprentice at the carpenter trade which 
he made his life work, and in which his skill was manifest in every contract 
he took.  At the age of 21 he was united in marriage to Margaret E. McDonald, 
at Linden, Mo.  They made their home in Rockport for 12 years and then removed 
to Auburn, Nebraska.  In 1906 they moved to Payette and for  24 years were 
among our highest respected citizens.  Mr. Williams always took a keen 
interest in the growth and development of our city and community and was 
honored and respected by all.
 
Mr. Williams is survived by his widow and six children, H. L. Williams, of San 
Fernando, Calif, W. J. Williams, of Boulder, Colo., Mrs. E. C. Payne, of 
Portland, Ore., Mrs. O. E. Bussey, of Portland, Ore., Mrs. C. D. Wood, of 
Medford, Ore., and Mrs. G. T. Currie, of Payette.
 
Funeral services were held Saturday, March 15, at 1 o'clock p.m. at Friendship 
Lodge, No 160 A. F. & A. M., of Portland, under instructions from his home 
lodge in Payette, and he was laid to rest by the side of his son, Joy, at 
Portland, who preceded him in death by a year.
 
In the taking of Mr. Williams Payette has lost an excellent citizen and one 
who will be greatly missed.
