Virginian Pilot November 11, 1900
Mr. Cary H. Williams, of Oakdale, was struck by the 7:30 o'clock p.m. west-bound 
Norfolk and Western passenger train at the South Norfolk crossing yesterday and 
instantly killed.
Mr. Williams leaves a wife and five children, four daughters and one son, all 
residing in Oakdale.
He was on his way home from E.H. Barnes' box factory at Gilmerton, where he was 
employed.
Mr. Williams has a half brother, Mr. C.H. Carter, living near him.  Mr. C.H. 
Carter is a cousin of Mrs. A.W. Culley, also of Oakdale.  He came to the village 
about a year ago from near Virginian Beach and was sick very nearly all the 
summer.  He was in the 45th year of his age and was known as a sober, 
industrious and honorable man.  He was a former member of the Pythian Lodge of 
Brambleton Ward, Norfolk.  Mr. Wm. J. Myers, of South Norfolk, said he was 
talking with him a short while before he met his death.
The family of Mr. Williams is prostrated by the unexpected occurrence.
