Frances married Floyd William on December 20, 1943, during his leave from the Army. From the time they met until Floyd returned from the war on Christmas Day, 1945, their courtship and young married life was spent communicating through the mail which would often take weeks.

Frances and Floyd had two children. Karren was born September of 1946 and Kenny was born February of 1952.

The Williams family moved to Tulsa in December of 1952, and Frances thought she was on vacation after all the years on the farm.

They moved to Lake Keystone in June 1964, For thirty years, Frances attended the Church of Christ in Mannford and Floyd was baptized there at the age of seventy three. Frances was a homemaker most of her life but spent thirteen very satisfying years at Hissom Memorial taking care of handicapped children. She retired from Hissom at sixty two and she and Floyd spent several years pulling a travel trailer in a caravan of family and friends.

In 1994, the Williams moved to Tulsa to be closer to family.

Frances was baptized into Christ at North Sheridan Church of Christ around 1958 and returned to that church when they moved back to Tulsa. Several years ago, she and Floyd placed their membership in the Down Town Bixby Church of Christ where other family members attended. Frances attended services at Bixby until she became immobile in March of 2011.

Frances was preceded in death by her husband of fifty-eight years, Floyd, and her son, Kenny, as well as all of her brothers and sisters.

She is survived by her daughter and son-in-law. She had five grandchildren. She also had eleven great-grandchildren. She also leaves behind many other relatives and friends. (Judy Diaz)

He settled on a farm in Elizabethtown, Essex county, New York, where Reuben Gates was born on July 28, 1826.

10836 WUELLNER, Wilhelm H. - Professor of New Testament Studies at Pacific School of Religion, Berkeley, CA, for 28 years was also a dedicated researcher into the causes and treatment of prostate cancer for 18 years. Born in Bochum, Germany, February 21, 1927, son of Wilhelm and Emma Wullner, he took his theological degree at Marburg University, Germany, before immigrating to the USA in 1954. He earned his Ph.D. in Hermeneutical Studies of the New Testament at Chicago Divinity School in 1958 and was ordained into the Lutheran ministry the same year. There followed 35 years as Professor of New Testament at Grinnell College, IA, Hartford Seminary Foundation in Hartford, CT, and finally at Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley, CA until his retirement in 1993. He was author and co-author of two books and numerous articles in Biblical and Rhetorical journals and active in international academic and theological conferences with lecture and teaching tours in England, Germany, Rome, Japan and South Africa. He was also an active and dedicated member of the Anthroposophical Society in America. Wuellner, all his life, was keenly interested in medical studies, and when he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 1986 he took a deep and active part in the choices of his treatment, both in standard and alternative medicine with extensive research. He often served as counselor to other men around the USA diagnosed with prostate cancer. He regarded his disease as a great spiritual and medical challenge and adventure. When he died at home in Fair Oaks, CA, February 14, 2004, surrounded by his family he did not interpret his work as a losing battle with cancer but rather as pushing back the frontiers of healing. He is survived by his wife of 50 years, the Rev. Flora Slosson Wuellner, daughters Christine Sideris, the Rev. Virginia Ward, Lucy Wuellner-Fernandez, seven grandchildren and his sister Ingeborg Wolter and niece Dorothee of Bochum, Germany.

10839 Zachariah Bicknell was admitted to full communion in the Congregation Church, Barrington, Rev. Peleg heath, minister, Mar. 26, 1732. About 1735 he removed with his family to Ashford, Conn. He was elected ensign of the train-band and was promoted to the captaincy. He was an active and useful citizen and an influential member of the Congregational Church of Ashford. BICKNELL, Zachariah (I104231)
 
10840 Zachariah lived in Weymouth at least ten years after his marriage, when he removed with his family to western part of Swansea, Mass., now Barrington, R.I., locating on the west bank of the Sowams or Barrington River.His farm of about two hundred acres included Princes Pond and lay north of the crest of Princes Hill, between the river on the east and the middle highway on the west. His house stood about five hundred feet west and north of the site of the Congregational meeting house, now known as "The White church," Barrington.

Mr. Bicknell was one of the founders of the town of Barrington and of the Congregational Church; the establishment of the church being the main motive for the creation of the town. Barrington was originally a part of the old town of Swansea, Mass. Here, on what is now Barrington soil, the first Baptist Church in Massachusetts was organized by the rev. John Myles, of Swansea, Wales, in 1663. this church drew to Swansea a large number of Baptist families from Plymouth and Massachusetts Bay Colonies. Many other families of the Congregational faith came to occupy the lands along the bay and rivers "on the westward end of Swansea," and these were moved to organize a church of their own order.

In 1711, a petition signed by twenty-nine persons, of whom Zachariah Bicknell was one, living on the "the westward end of Swansea," was sent to the General Court of Massachusetts, asking that a new town be formed "according to the limits of Captain Samuel Low's military company inSwansea, thereby enabling us to settle and maintain a pious, learned and orthodox minister for the good of us and our posterity." This movement was strongly opposed by the major element, the Baptists, and the first petition was denied. the struggle for a church and a town continued until Nov. 18, 1717, when, on a petition of Zachariah Bicknell, Josiah Torrey and Samuel Humphrey, agents for the Congregational Society of Swansea, the General Court of Massachusetts ordered a new town to b made on the lines already named and called it Barrington. As the English home of the Bicknell family was the parish of Barrington, in Somersetshire, England, it is evident that the name of our Rhode Island town was given by Zachariah Bicknell, in honor of his grandfather's church and parish in the old home land.

Mr. Bicknell was a useful leader in town and church affairs. In 1718 he was chosen one of a committee of three "to treat with Rev. Samuel Torrey," the town minister, as to his salary. the town meeting adjourned to meet at his house, "at five o'clock in the afternoon." In 1719 he was chosen as town assessor of taxes and one of a committee to adjust the county rates with Swansea. In 1720 he was elected as the deputy of the town to the GeneralCourt at Boston; he was also surveyor of highways.

In 1721 he was chosen to represent the town at Boston for an equitable taxation of Barrington land, owned by citizens of Rehoboth. In 1722 he was chosen town constable and was allowed L1.10S. for use of a room in his house for a five months' school. In 1724 he was chosen an assessor, a selectman and chairman of a committee as to rebuilding Myles Bridge, in Swansea. In 1725 he was moderator of the town meeting and was allowed 6s. for a house to keep school in. In 1726 he was a selectman, as assessor and one of a committee on pulpit supply. In 1728 he was one of a committee "to lay out a burying place, and to agree with Ebenezer Allen what to give him for the ground." the committee gave Mr. Allen L5 for half an acre of land for a burial place; the oldest part of the present beautiful cemetery at Princes hill, Barrington. In 1730 he was allowed 18s. for serving as trustee of the bank for two years; 14s. for use of school-room in his house, 1728; 20s for school-room for 1729, and 15s. for keeping Rev. Peleg heath's horse. In 1733 he was chosen town treasure and in 1734 moderator.....

It is probable that Mr. Bicknell died in 1734, as his name does not appear in the town records after that year. He was then sixty-six years old. The date of death of his wife, Hannah, is unknown. Both were probably buried in the family lot on the farm, about fifty rods west of their dwelling. All evidences of the old family burial place are now entirely obliterated. 
BICKNELL, Zachariah (I104224)
 
10841 Zachariah received from his father the old homestead; here he passed all the days of his life. This was the same land that the first Samuel had received as his share in "The 26 Men's Purchase" and it had come down through Obadiah and Samuel to Zachariah, for Samuel ten years before his death gave this land to Zachariah "in consideration of the love and good affection I have and do bare unto my son, Zachariah, " the right of use and occupation being reserved to the parents during their natural life. he and his wife were staunch members of the church. Zachariah eddy was among those who on Feb. 17, 1745 agreed to build a new meeting house. It is written of him that he was a well-informed man for his day. His general character was that of a mild, sedate and discreet man. he served the town n many ways. He was an ardent Whig, and several stories of his tilts with Judge Oliver, a staunch Tory, have been handed down in his family. He died of the small-pox in 1777. EDDY, Zachariah (I77044)
 
10842 Zachariah Sawtell was born 26 July 1643 at Watertown, according to the record. The year, however, conflicts with the birthdate of his sister Hannah, and perhaps it was 1644 or 1645. Zachariah grew up in Watertown but in his adolescence went with his parents to Groton. He later had a ten-acre proprietor's right there. In April of 1668 he married ELIZABETH HARRIS (Malden, Mass., Vital Records; The Register, 10:239), daughter of John Harris of Boston (Middlesex Co., Deeds, 27:354) Wyman (op. cit.) and Bailey (op. cit.) both give the date of marriage as 13 Apr 1669; in addition, Wyman says she died 1677-8 of small pox. Zachariah married, secondly, ANNA PARKER, daughter of Joseph and Margaret Parker of Chelmsford, Mass. The marriage occurred before 13 July 1684, when Joseph Parker deeded land to Anna, wife of Zachariah Sawtell (Middlesex Co., Deeds, 26:459, 27:325). She was born 16 Nov 1663 at Chelmsford (Vital records) and was thus about 18 years younger than her husband.

Zachariah Sawtell served in King Philip's War in 1675/6 when Groton was burned (Bodge, op.cit., p. 272). He returned after the peace and on 21 May 1688 was chosen one of five highway surveyors for Groton (Green, op.cit., p. 97), his last mention in town records. he died by 17 march 1691/2, when Anna was referred to as the widow Sawtell (The Register, 43:375), and his father's will of 1692 implies that he was dead. His estate, however, was not administered until 1701 when Josiah Parker of Cambridge and Thomas Walker of Charlestown were named administrators, the decedent being referred to as "late of Groton, blacksmith." Again, on 21 Nov 1716, Zachariah Sawtell Jr. and same Josiah Parker were named administrators (Middlesex County Probates, No.19967, 19975). Submitted on 13 Sep. 1716 was an inventory of three parcels of land, with total value of 25 pounds, 10 shillings. Anna was undoubtedly the "Widow Satle" who joined the Cambridge Church on 26 July 1702. On 26 April 1709, Anna Satle received from Josiah Parker land formerly belonging to John Sawtell, which his brothers and sisters had quitclaimed to parker on 21 oct. 1700 (Middlesex County Deeds, 15:575, 6). Anna Sawtell, widow, sold this property to John Knight on 4 June 1711, and by 1727 she was residing in Fairfield, Conn., with her daughter Margaret Wooster (Middlesex County Deeds, 27:715, 26:527). 
SAWTELL, Zachariah (I48287)
 
10843 Zachariah was bound out at the age of seven years to Mr. John Browne of Rehoboth. this Mr. John Browne was a man of importance in Plymouth, being the Governor's Assistant from 1636-1655. He was one of the original settlers and proprietors of Taunton and also of Rehoboth. A large tract of land called Wannamoisett was granted to him for his services to the government of Plymouth (Hist. of Taunton, p. 32.) Mr. John Browne died in 1662, but in a deed dated Dec. 29, 1661, he left to "Zacariah Eedey now resident in my family" 1/3 of 150 acres in Narragansett betwixt Quidniset and trading house of Richard Smith (Plymouth Col. Deeds, p. 103.)

On Jan. 4, 1661 "Zachariah bought of Thomas Savery a piece of land lying near Whetstones Vineyard in Major's Purchase bounded on or near where Eddy lives" (Plymouth Co. deeds 3, 81.)

On March 24, 1662 he received from his father Samuel, land near "Namamkeet" (Plymouth Col. Records, p. 116)....

From these records it appears that upon completing his apprenticeship Zachariah went to Middleboro and settled there, remaining for about eight years. His house stood on the twelve acres, granted him by the court, near what was later known as Eddy's furnace, just south of the present Eddyville. In 1666 his bounds were laid out by Ephraim Tinkham and Henry Wood (Court Orders, 4, p. 128)......

Soon after the incorporation of Swansea, Zachariah Eddy was made Freeman of Swansea on May 29, 1670. the following year on May 11th, he was chosen waywarden and on June 5th, he was elected surveyor of highways. In 1675 when King Philip's War broke out it is likely that Zachariah and his family took refuge in Plymouth for a few years. While there on June 5, 1677 he was summoned by the court of Plymouth to serve on the Grand Inquest. Some time in June of this same year, 1677, those who had formerly lived in Middleboro previous to the outbreak of the war, together with some who owned property within the borders of Middleboro,sixty-eight persons in all, met and agreed to resettle the town. The list of the names of "The Proprietors of the liberties of the township of Middleberry taken at Plimouth" contains the iten,--"Sachariah Edey, Samuell Edey, 1 porpriation." When Samuel Eddy became a proprietor of the town of Middleboro, he thereby obtained the privilege of being a participant in all futher divisions of the undivided lands belonging to the township. This right was passed on to the sons when they received from him the lands at Namassakett. When the land was sold by them the proprietor's rights went with the land......

After King Philip's War, when all danger from hostile Indians was over, probably about the spring of 1678, Zachariah and his family returned to Swansea. He was established there on Oct. 21, 1679, when he purchased a piece of land from Thomas Barnes, and by this purchase obtained rights as a "second ranch man"; that is in any division of lands he would receive twice as much as a man of the "third ranch" ( or third rank as it is more often written). The third rank man received one unit of a division, a second rank man, two units, and a first rank man, three units.....

Having thus disposed of most of his possessions to his sons during his lifetime, Zachariah had but little to leave to his children as an inheritance. His will, dated Nov. 4, 1718, mentions his wife Abigail and all of his sons, to whom he states that he has given to them the land which he considers their share. It mentions also his daughter Elizabeth Whipple, who is deceased and his son-in-law, Samuel Whipple; his grandson ?ward Eddy; and his wife's son, Timothy Smith. To his son Joshua he left his great Bible (Bristol Co. Prob., 3.488). His wife Abigail left a will, dated Jan 2, 1720, which mentions daughters, Abigail hatch, Bethia Eddy, hannah Simmons; son-in-law, Remembrance Simmons; daughter Hopestill Kelley; and granddaughters, Ann, Abigail, and Amy, daughters of Caleb Eddy, whom she called her son-in-law (Bristol Co. Prob., 3, 693).

10844 Zacheus first settled at Adams, New York. Evert's history of Jeffsrson County, New York, page 242, mentions Zacheus Walworth as having taken up land Dec. 1, 1799. The actual deeds, however, were not given to any settler until 1802. His name also appears twice in the County Clerk's Office of Jefferson Co. (book of 1820, page 14) for sale of land in Rodman, New York.

The book "Council of Appointments - Military records" year 1784-1821, Vol. 1,p page 573 states Zacheus was an Ensign in 1802.

Zacheus was a lawyer and practiced in Adams and Watertown, New York. He was well known as a shrewd business man and had an infinite fund of humor. He always strived to keep people out of court and to settle their troubles among themselves. He is said to have been the first to bring a cooking stove into town.

Zacheus died while attending Court at Watertown, New York, and is buried in the cemetery near the old farm in the Town of Rodman. 
WALWORTH, Zacheus (I59129)
 
10845 Zebulon West was town-clerk thirty-four years. He was a son of Dea. Francis West, who before the year 1720, was a resident of Stonington. This is verified by the record of a deed from Josiah Rockwell, of Windsor, to Francis West, of Stonington dated November 29, 1718; also of a deed from Nathaniel Grant, of Tolland, to Francis West, of Stonington, dated March 1, 1720, both conveying land in Tolland. He was a resident in this town in January, 1721, as appears by the record of a deed from john Huntington to "Francis West of Tolland." These records show that he then had over seven hundred acres of land standing in his name, lying principally in the southeast corner of the town. He had several sons whose names appear on the records of the town. Their names are Samuel, Joseph, Amasa, Zebulon, Pelatiah, and Christopher. Joseph and Samuel were in town January 14, 1720, on which day the ear marks of their cattle were recorded. Samuel's mark was a half-penny on the fore side of the right ear; and Joseph's mark was a half penny on the foreside of the left ear.  WEST, Judge Zebulon (I60474)

10848 Zurishaddai Doty emigrated about 1752 to Hardwick and at the close of the war, to Wilmington. He was a blacksmith by trade and during the war was employed by the government as blacksmith in the army. He served in the Revolution in the same company in which his brother=in-law, Dr. Challis Safford, was surgeon. He was a witness to the will of James Alexander of Perth, now Salem, Washington Co., New York, July 16, 1783, and probably lived there at the time, as his brother Theodorus was then residing there. DOTY, Zurishaddai (I19594)
