From death record.Alt name
From Find-A-Grave. She is shown as "Ruth Williams" in her son William's birth record and son John's marriage record. But we may have two Ruths conflated. The Ruth Williams in Find-A-Grave was born 14 Jan 1860 and died 3 Aug 1898, but she does not have a shared gravestone with William D. Prater, as the one in my construction does.Endnotes
