Excerpt from Charles Williamson: A Review of His Life

This narrative of the life and work of Charles Williamson in relation to the County of Steuben and the Village of Bath, N. Y., has been compiled chiefly from the "Official Records of the Centennial Celebration of Bath, 1893." In that volume the article on Charles Williamson, by James M'Call, Esq., and the Historical Address, by the Hon. Ansel J. M'Call, have been the principal sources of information.

In addition, mention must be made of an appreciative Reminiscence of Charles Williamson which appeared in the Bath Plaindealer on March 7, 1885, and extracts from Mr. Turner's "History of the Phelps and Gorham Purchase, " which have been made available.

Other items of information not thus obtained have been derived from old letters and papers which need not be more particularly enumerated.
