Although most censuses give Charles' place of birth as New York, the 1870 US census gives it as Michigan. Michigan Births and Christenings Index, 1867-1911, is the source for his full date and place of birth. City of death is from New York, New York, Extracted Death Index, 1862-1948.
The 1870 US census shows Charles, age 2, and his father, "Marcus," in the household of Lewis and Julia Starks, in USA, MI, Calhoun, Burlington. Also in the household is Mary Starks, age 24, born in Michigan, daughter of Lewis and Julia. Mary is shown with the surname Starks, and is listed in the proper chronological order within her family. "Marcus" and Charles L are shown with the surname Williams as the last two members of the household. From this census alone, it is not clear that Mary was actually Charles' mother. However, Michigan Marriage Records, 1867-1952, shows that Marquis D Williams and Mary V Starks were married on 20 Aug 1867 in USA, MI, Branch, Burlington.
Charles' widow, Mamie Kelley Williams, has not yet been located. She may have remarried. His brother, Edward E Williams, born 22 Dec 1870 in USA, MI, Calhoun, Burlington (Michigan Births and Christenings Index, 1867-1911) may be the Edward/Eton Williams shown in the 1920 and 1930 US censuses living in USA, NY, New York City, Manhattan, with wife Mary F. However, this identification is speculative.
If you have information about Mamie and/or Edward, please contact the manager of this memorial. Thank you.
