John Williams,1 all or Sharon. They dwelt at Sharon, and, later, at Auburn, N. Y. "When he brought his family to Auburn, N. Y., he had just returned from a 14 years absence in Virginia and elsewhere. This was not long after his brother Dan's death, in 1810. His third and last visit to his family (for his returns were nothing more) was in 1823 or 24, soon after his wife's death. When and where he died is not known. His wife, Jerusha, died at Auburn, early in April 1821, and was buried there." 4233

1283 IV.

Ire settled, before his marriage, at Sharon Springs, N. Y. They dwelt at Whitesborough and Fort Stanwix, N. Y., till 1795; at Levana, N. Y., till 1807; and then settled at Auburn, N. Y., where she died, 30 Jan. 1817, and was buried in the old cemetery. His age and infirm health led him to retire from business, and move to Albion, N. Y., where he dwelt with his son, Dan Hyde Cole, till his death, 1 Aug. 1843. He was buried at Auburn. "He had," says an Auburn paper, "a clear and vigorous intellect and a sound judgment which remained with uncommon freshness and energy till he breathed his last. He had also a kind and sympathizing heart, was frugal and unostentatious in his habits, and upright in all his dealings; yet in his Christian character, the most striking and pleasing transformations were made visible by divine grace. 4237
