Notes for Mary Catherine “Molly” Charity (Spouse 1)
Kathleen E. Sturkie Powell: I remember when Grandma was very sick. I was very small and we went to her house. Grandpa Williams wouldn’t let children around Grandma so I sat in his study while Mamma visited her. I didn’t touch any of his books. We were all afraid of Grandpa Williams. We thought that he was mean. Grandma Williams fell while she was carrying a pot of boiling water--she may have had a stroke--and the water spilled all over her. She lived only a few days after the accident.

Notes for Mary Catherine “Molly” Charity (Spouse 1)
“Papa let Aunt Mollie and her three children move into his Hill Top farmhouse wheere the renters had lived. Aunt Mollie made Sarah’s dresses and all the boys’ shirts. Aunt Rhoda, the housekeeper, cooked and cared for the John Smith Home. Aunt Mollie was Mama’s sister and Uncle Frank was Papa’s brother. Bennie, Lula and Davy were double cousins. They were Sarah’s constant companions in the daytime. “37
