Notes - Rueben Merrifield Williams married H
Rueben Merrifield Williams married Hannah "Maria" Tippetts on 4 Nov 1895 at Malad. Rueben worked at many odd jobs. At one time he had a "Whiskey Still" up in the Malad mountains and he raised pigs to eat the mash. It was decided that they made more money from the pigs than they did from the Whiskey!!
The area in and around where the 'Still" was located is still to this day called "Rueben Hallor."
SIDE NOTE- An area in back of the Williams Grove up Deep Creek, which was originally the Williams Homestead was called "Hyrum Sawyer Hollor" after Hyrun James Williams. Another area near the ranch up Deep Creek was called "Rueben Hollor" after the youngest son Rueben Merrifield Williams. These two areas are called the above names to this date......July of 2009.
