An article in the Bellingham Herald, May 1, 1925:

Andrew Lynde Williams Jr., son of the late “Andy” Williams, veteran police chief of Bellingham, and Whatcom County Sheriff, who died at Okanogan recently, was committed to the Northern State hospital at Sedro-Woolley, at conclusion of a sanity hearing in the superior court Thursday afternoon. The younger Williams’ condition, it was said, followed as a result of a series of accidents and severe disappointments. Early this year he went to Alaska to work at one of the fish canneries but was brought back last week when his condition became worse.

Treatment at the Northern State Hospital is expected to result in improvement. As a youth, he is recalled as a star player in the backfield of Whatcom high school’s football team. He foremerly served on the Bellingham police department, in which latter service deafness developed. The young man gained recognition for his services in the aviation at Kelly field during the world war. The story is told that he faked his way into the army air service by reading the physical examiner’s lips, having acquired that ability after becoming partially deaf.

In the 1930 census, he is living with his sister and family in Bellingham. He was a steamship mechanic. That census shows that Andrew was a veteran of the World War.

An obit in the Bellingham Herald, headlined Lynde Williams Dies, in the September 13, 1930 edition:

Lynde (Windy) Williams, son of the late Andy Williams, veteran police officer and one time sheriff and acting chief of police, died after a brief illness today on a ranch in Okanogan county where he had spent the greater part of the last ten years.

Williams was a former member of the local fire and police departments and also served for some time as night merchant patrolman. He also made several trips to Alaska with P.A.F. crews and, since leaving Bellingham, made a few trips as assistant engineer on ocean steamers.

During his high school days at Whatcom, Williams was a football star, playing on the same team with Fred Spenger, Ben Tidball, Tom Gaffney, Starr Sutherland and other well remembered players.

So far as could be learned here, the only close relative surviving is a sister, Mrs. Layman (Esther) Day, who resides on the Okanogan farm. Williams was about 38 years of age.

An article in the September 16, 1930, edition of the Bellingham Herald notes that Lynde Williams was given a military funeral, officiated by the local Albert J. Hamilton post of the American Legion. Williams had been a charter member of the post. During the World War, he was a sergeant first class in the air service.

the Wisconsin Death Index says she died in Waukesha County

ELLINGBOE, Ellinora (Eleanor, Nona) (I2354)

The Wisconsin Genealogical Index shows a Maria Augustine born in Ozaukee County on 10 Jul 1852. That couldn’t be a child of Frank and Susan unless her French birth date somehow got into the Wisconsin records. Maria was born in France in 1852.

If Mary Ludwig was an Augustine, she wasn’t Marianne (b. 1852), she was Marie (b. ca 1840).

If her mother’s claim of having only three living children is correct in the 1900 census, then Marianne must have been dead by the time of that census.
