  Notes	History of Schoharie County by William E. Roscoe, CHAPTER XXII. In 1825, O. H. Williams, a former clerk of Peter Osterhout, Sr., erected the brick store at present occupied by Jacob Slingerland, and for many years was engaged in the mercantile business. Mr. Olaf K. Williams, was the son of Eben Williams, a Revolutionary patriot, who held a captain's commission through that war, and proved a useful and staunch soldier, participating in many of the most important battles fought during that eventful period. Williams passed away on the 13th of October, 1872, "white with the frost of years." ... The observing can plainly note by the different style of buildings, at what period they were erected, and mark the improvement in architecture as well as convenience and comfort in their construction. The one alluded to was considered a fine residence in its day. But in strolling up the street, observing the modern additions placed upon some of the buildings of equal age, and especially in viewing the spacious residence of James O. Williams, we can but be struck with the development of architectural art. ____ Messrs. J.O. Williams, of Central Bridge, and J.W. Taylor, of this village, were the first merchants in this town to have the honor of having freight for their stores consigned to them. They together secured one car and loaded it with 12 tons of all sorts of merchandise. Our merchants and business men are awaiting for the opening of the road so as to procure cheap transportation. Schoharie Republican, Sept. 3, 1863
