BROOKINGS-HARBOR PILOT, BROOKINGS, OREGON
Last Rites Sunday
For Mrs. Williams
Continued from Page One
covered wagon during w'hich time
they endured many hardships
such as Mrs. Williams, then Mrs.
Freeman, sitting up nights burn
ing up her hand-made quilts to
keep away mosquitoes from the
sick children so they could rest.
After living there a year, the
family decided to go farther north
—so on their sojourn to Okla
homa, other relatives joined them
but hard luck struck again and
the other 13 members of the par-
ty took sick, compelling Mrs.
Freeman to care and cook for
them by camp fire. In 1908 they
decided to go west, so they chose
a little town by name of Har-
bor, from the map and decided
to go there and build themselves
a house “hanging over the ocean”
or take up a homestead up one
of the big canyons and be the
“fartherest family up the canyon
and live there until Mr. Free
man turned a gray mule”.
They carried out this plan but
this pioneer trip took a year with
many disallusionments and hard
ships suffered along the way.
Mr. Freeman passed away in
1927 on their homestead up Jack
Creek canyon. Mrs. Freeman then
went to live with her son, Wil
son and family, until 1930, when
she was united in marriage to
Robert Lee Williams. They re
turned to the old Freeman home
stead for ten years at which
time they retired and mored to
their present home in Brookings,
where she passed away April 27,
1951.
Mrs. Williams was well known
as a kind and understanding
friend and a lover of her churcn
and flowers, She had a deep un-
derstanding of other people’s
sorrow's and troubles and was 1
never too busy or tired to help i
anyone.
She always had a cheer-
■
iul word for everyone» and was
loved as a grandmother by all
the children in the community.
