BIO: In a letter to compiler in Nov., 1997, John W. O'DELL, grandson of Alma (SJOSTROM) WILLIAMS, reported that his mother's father was John Peter WILLIAMS, born in ENGLAND. John did not know his grandmother's name, but did say that she, too, was an immigrant from SWEDEN, and that the couple had married "out west somewhere" after coming to this country separately. John reported that the WILLIAMS, for some reason he did not know, had returned to EUROPE, and that his mother, Alna (WILLIAMS) O'DELL, was one of twins born at Ellis Island when the couple returned to the U.S. In January, 1998, compiler received a packet of family data from John's sister, Pat. Included in that packet were a family group sheet for John P. WILLIAMS, Jr. and a copy of a letter written to authorities at the Statue of Liberty by John WILLIAMS' daughter, Ruth (WILLIAMS) ALEXANDER, concerning the birth of the twins at Ellis Island. Compiler has transcribed that letter below:
"This story sent to Statue of Liberty National Monument by Ruth WILLIAMS ALEXANDER on April 17, 1979. I have been slow in answering your letter of November 2, 1978, because I wanted to get together some more information. Regarding my Mother and Father, they were not exactly immigrants. Mother was Swedish and Father was English. The incidents related below concerned a period of time before immigrant facilities were established at Ellis Island. My mother was set on a goal of someday coming to AMERICA and earning enough to go back to SWEDEN and buying the family farm from her father. Without informing them of any such dream she wrote to an aunt in Iowa, U.S.A., asking her to send her a one-way ticket to AMERICA. The ticket was to arrive on the eve of her eighteenth birthday. The ticket arrived, as planned, and in the meantime she had made all her plans, including clothes, and etc. She showed her parents the letter and the ticket and left the next day. This was in 1881. She spent two years in Iowa with the aunt and uncle; she went to school, learned to read and write and speak the English language. From Iowa she went to Denver, Colorado, and got a job with a well- to-do doctor's family. She was an excellent cook and manager. Sometime later she developed walking typhoid and the doctor told her to go to a higher and drier climate. She went to Aspen, Colorado, and got work as a cook in a large mining company boarding house. Aspen was booming as a silver and gold mining community. It was here that she met my father. About ten years later she and father went to SWEDEN. To put things simply, father didn't like SWEDEN OR farming so the dream never materialized. Late in the summer of 1892, while still in SWEDEN, mother became pregnant and wanting the children born in AMERICAN citizenship, they decided to come back. They landed at Ellis Island on March 20, 1893. Mother was very sick with bronchitis as they had had a very cold and stormy trip across the North Atlantic. She was carried off the big liner on a stretcher and taken at once to the maternity ward where she gave birth to premature twins. The two babies weighed in at one and a half pounds together. Her stay at the Island was two very unpleasant weeks as the maternity ward was just above the insanity ward. There were no incubators, nor much of anything else for the care and comfort of preemies. After two weeks, and with the help of the nurses, they equipped two shoe boxes with cotton, well soaked with vaseline, to carry the babies. Mother fed them with an eye dropper. Holes were cut in the tops of the boxes, much as one would ship a small pet nowadays. They went to Iowa to the home of the aunt (where she had first stayed in the year 1881) where the babies grew to normal nine months children. Father thought the first born should be named Alma after the mother. Since they were identical twins, mother hit on the idea that she could take the "M" out of "Alma" and put in the "N" for "Alna." Soon after this they went to Denver, Colorado, where they rented a home in what is now the Capitol Complex in the heart of the city. Just as soon as father got the little family settled he went to Cripple Creek, Colorado, the greatest gold mining camp in the world, to work in the mines. I was born in Denver in 1894 and a young sister Rebe, was born two years later. Father met a tragic death in 1899 in a mine lease where he and his partner had just opened up a rich vein of ore. Mother, knowing nothing of mining and the partner but little more, gave up the lease. A few years later a gold mining magnate opened the mine again and took out $45million. At the time of father's death mother was carrying another child who turned out to be another girl, Juni. Mother with her Swedish background of determination and courage gave the four girls, (Rebe had in the meantime passed away from diphtheria) an education and with her acquired talents as cook and caterer lived out her life until 1927. Mother made many and frequent trips back to SWEDEN on matters of estate settlement. On one of these trips she took all four of us along. We spent fifteen months over there and I have always regretted that she didn't put us in school. On the return from this trip we landed at QUEBEC, and while going through customs, a tall man, obviously of ENGLISH descent, asked mother whether or not those two taller girls weren't born about thirteen years ago at Ellis Island. She replied, "Why yes, but how would you have known?" His reply, "How well I remember that night. You were a mighty sick lady when we carried you off liner." The four girls spent their elementary and high school years in the Cripple Creek Schools, after which they went their separate ways on entering college. The two twins grew to be about six feet tall and the older one, Alma passed away in 1946. Alna, a registered nurse, now retired, is living in a suburb of Dallas, Texas. With the disability of being almost blind, she still enjoys life in fairly good health although she is somewhat past 85." I am sending a few pictures in case you can use them. I would be interested to see any use you might make of this lengthy yarn. Sincerely,
Mrs. H. D. ALEXANDER
NOTE: Patricia (O'DELL) VORHIS, daughter of the twin, Alna WILLIAMS, writes in her letter to compiler that she questions the weight of the twins at birth. "I think I remember Mother's telling me that they weighed around 7 lbs." (Compiler assumes this means the combined weight of the twins.) Compiler's husband ran a search of the names of immigrants at Ellis Island, looking for the WILLIAMS family and some record of the birth of the twins. He did not find them, so they apparently have not been included in the memorial there as of January, 1998.

Letter to authorities at the Statue of Liberty Mem., written by Alna's sister, Ruth (WILLIAMS) ALEXANDER, 17 April 1979. Letter contains story of their parents' lives and the birth of the twins at Ellis Island. Letter transcribed in its entirety in "BIO" for Alna's mother, Alma (SJOSTROM) WILLIAMS.
BIO: Compiler's first memories of "Aunt Billie" were of her "no nonsense" manner of speaking. As a child, compiler was more than a little frightened of this relative. In later years, it became obvious that this was simply her manner and there was nothing to fear. Still, it often seemed that she "barked" orders and compiler's impression was that she might have been a good military officer! It was not until compiler began genealogical research that she realized that Billie O'DELL had been born at ELLIS ISLAND. In the fall of 1997, compiler's husband made contact with Billie's son, John W. O'DELL, via a letter and copies of the data compiler had at that time. One of the specific requests for information concerned the story behind "Billie's" birth on Ellis Island. John responded as follows, in a letter to compiler 13 Nov. 1997: "As I understand, my grandparents came to the United States as indentured servants, lived and married in Iowa or Nebraska. They then went to Europe. When they returned to this country, my grandmother was expecting and gave birth on Ellis Island to two twin girls, Alma and Alna. It is documented that they were the first twins born on Ellis Island." Concerning compiler's initial report that "Aunt Billie" had served as a nurse in the military during WW I, John wrote - "As I understand again, my mother and dad met in Colorado when dad was confined to the hospital where mother was working. Dad served in WW I, but mother was never in the service." John also provided the name and place of birth of his maternal grandfather; he did not give his grandmother's name, but recorded that she was born in SWEDEN.
