Notes:
In the 1840 census, there is a Joseph Williams in the next dwelling from Ebenezer Foster and his wife, Almira Williams. By 1850, Joanna Williams (age 67) is in the next dwelling along with Leonard Pixley (age 15). I thought the relationship would be that Joanna is Leonard's aunt's (Almira) sister-in-law but that doesn't seem right. Is Joanna, Joseph's sister-in-law? Some other relative?
MARRIAGE: Married to Matilda Fish by Orin Gilmore. Orin Gilmore owned land in the vicinity and was a minister. Jos. B was married to Ann Johnson by Rev J McEldowny.
He was a Methodist from the time he turned 20 to his death.

Notes:
In 1850 census, there is a Joanna Williams living in the next household and Leonard Pixley living with her. Almira's uncle's wife? Not sure who this is, but it seems it could be a relative. Leonard is Ebenezer Foster's nephew, son of his sister, Sally.

(3.Mary3, 2.Joseph2, 1.Manuel1) b. 17 Aug 1811, Broome, Schoharie Co., Ny; d. 18 Apr 1891, Middleburg, Cuyahoga, Ohio.
Notes:
Owned property in old Ohio City (Cleveland) on Jay and Rose Streets. This is very near where the West Side Market is now located and close to the "Circle" in Ohio City. Is this the same property that his brother-in-law, Ebenezer Foster, speaks of in his book, "Early Days of the Pioneer's"? Although Ebenezer doesn't mention Almon by name, nor even a "Williams", it isn't hard to imagine that Ebenezer's wife (Almon's sister) visited him and that could have given Ebenezer the idea to buy property in the vicinity.
