CWV OSH ORTING CEM PIERCE CO WILLIAMS JOHN A UNION CENSUS CHRON 2023

 

This is the correct John A Williams but I cannot for sure find him in any census in Washington. There are many John Williams but birth date and Place do not match. Nothing in Pension file gives his wife name to help confirm it Is him even though he says was widow in 1913 when he applied for OSH in Orting WA. I also could not locate his or what I suspect to be his brothers in Fold3 Military file for 1st US Cavalry.
