Cornelia's obituary stated burial was to take place in West View Cemetery in North Adams. There is no such cemetery, so that was likely a misprint and since her spouse was buried in Southview Cemetery, it is very likely she was buried here, as well.

*Note that no proof of divorce was provided, however Cornelia is seen as divorced in the 1900 Census, so the year provided above is incorrect
1 Jun 1896 in The North Adams Transcript, in an article involving her "boarding house on Summer street" Cornelia was referred to as Mrs. Cornelia Williams. Due to conventions at the time, if she and James were still together, she may have instead been referred to as Mrs. James Williams.
