It lists the 2 CONT birth of a daughter, Margaret, on September 23, 1854, to Patrick and 2 CONT Mary Cotter. It lists both Patrick's and Mary's place of birth as Ireland. 2 CONT Apparently, Patrick Cotter remarried after his first wife, Alice 2 CONT O'Connell Cotter died in Ireland around 1843. (See Patrick Cotter Jr.s 2 CONT death notice) Patrick Sr.'s second wife was Mary Farrell. It's not known 2 CONT if they married in Ireland, or in the U.S., however no marriage record is 2 CONT listed for them in the "Marriage Abstracts" of the Dedham Records. 2 CONT According to the "Death Abstracts" for Dedham, Mary Farrell Cotter died 2 CONT at the age of 30 of Bleeding at Lungs on February 1, 1856.

This leads me to belive that the Margaret who died in 1871, 2 CONT and Patrick Cotter Sr., were siblings. Margaret's estate papers also list 2 CONT Patrick as her brother. 2 CONT The next reference to Patrick Cotter Sr. comes in the Norwood 2 CONT Directory, 1876-1877.

Military records show he enlisted on February 15, 2 CONT 1864 in Company G of the 6th New York Heavy Artillery at Tarrytown, 2 CONT New York. His occupation at the time of his enlistment was butcher.His 2 CONT volunteer enlistment paper said he had blue eyes, light hair, and a fair 2 CONT complexion. It listed his height as five feet, one and a half inches tall. 2 CONT He was discharged from the service at the rank of private, at Petersburg, 2 CONT Virginia on 18 May, 1865, by reason of special order dated 3 May, 1865. 2 CONT The records indicate (as does his obituary) that he was wounded in the 2 CONT left arm at Petersburg. 2 CONT After leaving the Army, Richard Williams lived for four years in New 2 CONT York City, three years in Sing Sing ten years in Hingham, Massachusetts, 2 CONT before moving to Stoughton where he lived until 1913 when he moved to 2 CONT the Chelsea Soldiers home. 2 CONT Apparently, after arriving in Hingham, Richard Married Alice Stoddard , 2 CONT although no marriage certificate has yet to be found. Alice Stoddard 2 CONT Williams was still alive when Richard went to Stoughton in the 2 CONT mid-1880s. Around that time, he met Ellen Murray who was about 15 2 CONT years old. Both were living in a home on Perry Street Avenue in 2 CONT Stoughton. 2 CONT Based on a marriage certificate, Charles Williams married Ellen 2 CONT Murray in Boston on April 2, 1885 by a Sumner U. Sherman. The entry 2 CONT lists Charles' birthplace as England, and his age as 35. It says his 2 CONT parents were William and Elizabeth Williams (no maiden name given for 2 CONT his mother.) His occupation is listed as painter. Ellen's birthplace is 2 CONT listed as Boston. Her age at the time of marriage, 25. Her parents are 2 CONT listed asJames and Ellen Murray (again no maiden name given for her 2 CONT mother). According to the entry, it is Charles' second marriage, Ellen's 2 CONT first. 2 CONT A second marriage certificate shows they were legally married again 2 CONT on 7 September, 1892. This time, He was married under the name of 2 CONT Richard, and shows his age as 47. Ellen's age is listed as 32, and lists 2 CONT her parents names as John and Annie. One theory for the second wedding 2 CONT is to make legal the questionable first wedding back in 1885, which may 2 CONT have been invalid since Richard was still married to Alice Stoddard at 2 CONT the time. The second wedding took place after Alice Stoddard's death. 2 CONT Charles and Ellen Williams gave birth to a daughter, Nellie {could she 2 CONT later be known as Lucy?}, on May 9, 1886 (Stoughton town records, 1886 2 CONT births) The entry lists the parents as Charles R. and Nellie (Murray) 2 CONT Williams. Charles birthplace listed as England, Ellen's as Boston. 2 CONT In 1888, Charles and Ellen Williams had a son, Frederick J. Williams, 2 CONT born in Stoughton on May 18 (Stoughton town records, 1888 births). 2 CONT The 1890 Stoughton poll tax book shows that Charles R. Williams 2 CONT paid $2.00 poll tax. No other property tax was paid. 2 CONT In 1891, Charles and Ellen Williams had another daughter, May Frances 2 CONT Williams, born in Stoughton, on March 15.(Stoughton town records, 1891 2 CONT births) But the infant died just four months and 23 days later of 2 CONT diarrhea. (Stoughton town records, 1891 deaths) Charles and Ellen (Nellie 2 CONT Murray) are listed on the girl's death certificate as well. 2 CONT The 1891 persons listed book lists Charles R. Williams, on Winter 2 CONT Street. His occupation was a Hostler, and he worked for the J.S. Phinney 2 CONT Counter Company. Charles Williams is listed in the poll tax books for the 2 CONT following years, up through 1896, each year, listing his home as Winter 2 CONT Street. Occupations range from "laborer" to "operative". There are two 2 CONT items regarding Charles and Ellen Williams in the Stoughton Sentinel in 2 CONT 1897. The first, on April 17, 1887, under the "Personals" column on page 2 CONT one, reads "Charles Williams has moved to the house on the corner of 2 CONT Pleasant and Prospect Streets." The second item was also in the page 2 CONT one personals column, on September 4, 1897. It reads, "Mrs. Charles 2 CONT Williams is entertaining her sister from New York." The 1897 Poll tax 2 CONT lists 50 year old Charles Williams, laborer, as living on Pleasant Street. 2 CONT The Stoughton birth register for 1898 shows Henry Williams was 2 CONT born October 6, 1898. His parents are listed as Richard and Nellie 2 CONT (Adams) Williams. 2 CONT The poll tax book for 1898, lists 54 year old Richard Williams as living 2 CONT on Pleasant Street. His occupation is listed as laborer. Richard 2 CONT Williams is listed on Pleasant Street again, in the 1899 poll tax book. 2 CONT The 1900 U.S. Census lists Richard Williams as living in Stoughton with 2 CONT his wife of 10 years, Nellie (born July, 1863) and three children; a 2 CONT daughter, Lucy R.

He started employment with what is now the Brockton 2 CONT Ice & Coal Co. on Oct. 17, 1891, having been hired by Walter Flagg, who 2 CONT owned the business at that time.

Mr. Brown often told of commuting 2 CONT between Brockton and Randolph when some of the poles and rails were 2 CONT shipped into Randolph. They obtained one of the old horse cars. Each 2 CONT morning, they would hitch the horses onto it, draw it from the company 2 CONT lot on Lawrence Streetand get it onto the rails on Main street and ride to 2 CONT Randolph. 2 CONT At night upon their return to Lawrence street they would put a lock 2 CONT under the front wheel of the car causing it to jump the track and then 2 CONT draw it back to the company lot ready for the next trip. 2 CONT Mr. Brown also cut ice in Factory Village pond and the Avon Reservoir. 2 CONT Mr. Brown was a member of the United Presbyterian church.
