Great Grandma Ruth married William W 'Bill' Williamson 12 April 1882 having 11 children by the age of 51 or so. She is not seen beyond the 1910 Census. Great Grandpa Bill called her Ruthie and not much else is known about her. Her death date is estimated based on a comment made in a legal document by her sons Ode & Cooper in 1917. They mentioned "not having a real home since their mamma died a few years back", making her Death Date around 1914. From the picture we have she was a lovely woman who died to soon, burial place unknown.
