James Williamson

James Williamson (1825-1889) and Jane Elizabeth Black (1837-1870) were Harvey's parents.
Harvey never mentions his mother, who died when he was quite young, but his Journal for 1889
describes his father's illness and death at age 63. He closes that year's journal with this note:
"One of our number is missing gone forever. A kind & faithful Father. One who left behind
a kind home for us which will never be forgotten as long as life exists."


James & Jane had six children - Harvey, Emma, Orrie E., Annie, Jennie B., and a baby boy
who died at birth in 1869. Harvey notes the death of his sister Jennie B. in his 1874 Journal.
She was born in 1870 only 2 months before her mother Jane died, so she may have lived
with her grandparents. This might explain why her gravestone notes only that she was
the granddaughter of William and Elisabeth Black. Her parents are not noted on the gravestone.
