7a.  1900 U.S. Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  John WILLIAMS (æ 73, b. Nov 1826, England; imm. 1830) is living in Winters Town, Winters Twp., Yolo Co., CA (p. 85B), with his married son, John C. WILLIAMS (æ 38, b. Mar 1862, CA), and his family.

May 1880, CA), are living in Berkeley (Ward 4), Oakland Twp., Alameda Co., CA (p. 180A).  Given the severe social stigma for being divorced, it was not unusual for a divorced woman to call herself a widow.  My own maternal grandmother did the same, in the 1900 census of Missouri.

8.  1910 U.S. Census Every-Name-Index/Images (online at Ancestry.com):  can't find Jennie.  A divorced Justin L. WILLIAMS (æ 29, b. CA) is boarding in the City and County of San Francisco, CA (p. 125A).
