Notes for Persis Amelia Hall
2nd wife.
Died when 2nd daughter was a week old.
Gravestone says died “in her 29th year”.
Newspaper: The Manlius Repository , May 28, 1833:
“Died. In this village, on Sabbath evening last, Mrs. Persis A. Williams, wife of Mr. Silas Williams, aged 28 years.
In all the relations of social life, Mrs. Williams never failed to exhibit those qualifications which are so peculiarly the ornament of her sex.
In her Christian profession, she was sincere and devoted--as a wife and mother, amiable, kind and affectionate--as a friend and neighbor, frank, warm-hearted and benevolent.
All who enjoyed the pleasure of her acquaintance will deplore her loss, and deeply sympathize with her afflicted husband, and other relatives. “
