Obituary:

"Olive M. Williams was born in Effingham County, Illinois, September 22, 1878 and came with her parents to York County, Nebraska in 1887. She was the youngest daughter of Edward H. Williams and Mary Malinda Edwards Williams, who moved to Mason City, Nebraska in 1897, both passing on a few years later. She was married to Francis A. Amsberry, Jr., December 24, 1896 and spent most of her life in the vicinity of Mason City. About ten years ago, she suffered an attack of flu which left her with a bronchial cough which could never be cured though more than a dozen good doctors were called in her case.

She affiliated with the Primitive Baptist church and loved the doctrine of predestination which to them is fundamental.

Munn of Phoenix and five grandchildren of Long Beach, California."
