2. Williams, John (1.John1) was christened 9 May 1822, St. Erth, Cornwall, England; died Yes, date unknown. Notes:
I don't know where the wife's name Jane Glasson came from. I'm guessing I thought his wife's name was Jane from the 1851 Census when really the Jane listed is his sister. And then I probably found the marriage listing for John Williams and a Jane Glasson and thought that was it. Now I think it could be that his wife's name is Susan because of what I found in the 1861 Census.
This is the marriage for John and Susan from the parish register - the same John and Susan I found in the 1861 Census. Her maiden name is Hebbard, which is the maiden name of John's brother Thomas' wife, Charlotte. Which means brothers married sisters. AND the witness at this wedding is George Martin, who is the brother-in-law of Susan and Charlotte Hebbard.

History of John Henry Williams as told by his son, Jack David Williams July 9, 1978
John Henry Williams was born in England. His mother died giving birth to him. His father was killed a month later in the mine. He came to the United States when he was 5 years old with a family named Hebbard. They didn't want him to come, but one of the daughters said she wouldn't go unless they brought the baby. His life was difficult from then on. The family moved to Calumet, Michigan. John Henry got the last of the food, clothes, etc. Mr. Hebbard beat him often as he was drunk most of the time. When John Henry was 17 years old, he hit him back, putting him under the table. John Henry packed his things and left. As far as we know, he worked as a sharpshooter during the strike in Calumet.
He worked in Detroit for a while - he was a friend of Henry Ford, who referred to him as a "squirrel" because John Henry would climb up places nobody else would.John married Hendra, Myrtle 12 Jul 1920, Detroit, Wayne, Michigan. Myrtle (daughter of Hendra, Richard and Rowe, Mary Emily) was born 26 Jul 1895, Ishpeming, Marquette, Michigan; died 25 Jul 1929, Negaunee, Marquette, Michigan; was buried 28 Jul 1929, Ishpeming, Marquette, Michigan.
