ST NAZIANZ, Feb. 28 – Many of the residents of this village and of the neighboring farming district gathered at St. Gregory's church Friday morning to pay their last respects to another of the old pioneers, Mrs. Mary Williams, who was, at the time of her death a little less than ninety-one years of age and one of the oldest persons in the county. Her death a few days previously terminated a lingering illness of many months at the home of her daughter, Miss Pamelia Williams, on the Calumet road about six miles northwest of this village.
Mrs. Williams was born in Canada February 27, 1838. She was married first to a Mr. McCabe and some time after his death she married Nelson E. Williams with whom she lived for many years on the old homestead where she died.
She is survived by five daughters and three sons, eight grandchildren and four great grandchildren, and by many more distant relatives. Among those in attendance at the funeral were her daughters, Miss Pamelia Williams with whom she made her home for many years, Mrs. Catherine Coyne, Mrs. Mary Markee and Mrs. Thomas Fallon of Chicago, Mrs. Edward Schwab and Mrs. Mary Fitzgerald of Valders, her son, Pat McCabe of North Dakota and several members of her children's families from Valders and Chilton.
A requiem Mass was celebrated by Rev. Fintan Holzknecht, SDS and interment was made in the family plot in the village cemetery. Six grandsons of the deceased acted as pallbearers.
