Guy M. Williams


Guy M. Williams, grocer at Osborn, was born in the neighboring county of Clark on September 11, 1883, a son of Frank and Maria (Musser) Williams, both of whom are still living, residents of Clark county. Frank Williams also was born in Clark county and there grew to manhood. He has been a farmer all his life and for some time lived in the neighboring county of Montgomery, but is now living in Clark county. To him and his wife nine children were born, six of whom are still living, but the subject of this sketch is the only one of these who is a resident of Greene county.

Reared on the farm, Guy M. Williams received most of his schooling in Montgomery county and after leaving school became a clerk in the Stephen Store at Osborn, where he remained for five years, at the end of which time he went to Springfield and was there engaged working in a wholesale grocery store until 1912, in which year he returned to Osborn and bought the Buhrman store, the same store under a different management in which he had formerly been a clerk, and has ever since been engaged in business in that village.

In December, 1914. Guy M. Williams was united in marriage to Marie Hunter, daughter of Emily Hunter. Politically, Mr. Williams is a Republican and, fraternally, is affiliated with the local lodge of the Junior Order of United American Mechanics.
