Wm. W. Woodmansee was born in Hopkinton, R. I., January 23, 1825, and died at his home in Rockville, R. I., August 7, 1911, aged 86 years, 6 months and 14 days.

On October 30, 1852, he married Almedia Burdick, who died May 1, 1897. To them were born eight children, three of whom survive them - Orrin G. of Rockville, LaClede of Westerly, R. I, and Geo. W. of New York City. October 3, 1846, he became a member of the Rockville Seventh-day Baptist Church and was one of its most faithful members for about sixty-five years, till called home. He loved the church with all its appointments and was a willing worker in its prayer meetings and business meetings. From 1868 to1894, a period of thirty-six years, he was the treasurer of the church, attending faithfully and conscientiously to all his duties. March 23, 1889, he was ordained deacon of the church. He "served well" as a deacon and gained a "good standing" in the church and among all who knew him. The church has lost one of its most devoted members, but our loss is his gain.
