William Douglas - was born on 15 Sep 1830 in Canada and died on 15 Jul 1896 in Elmwood, Ill and was buried in Hope Cemetery . He was the son of Thomas Douglass and Mary Ann Seeley. William married Sarah Maria Jones on 5 Oct 1852 in Victoria District, Ontario. Sarah was born on 18 Apr 1831 in Near Jamestown, N.Y.. She was the daughter of Miles Jones Jr. and Pamela Ketchum Turner. She died on 10 Dec 1910 in Galesburg, Ill and was buried in Hope Cemetery, Elmwood Ill. . Sarah - Was with her son Edwin Douglass in 1910 Census, in Galesburg, Ill. Mrs. Wm. Douglas.   Following a service in Galesburg, the remains of Sarah Maria (Jones) Douglas, were brought here for burial yeserday.   Mrs. Douglas was born April 18, 1831, near Jamestown, N.Y. In 1835, she, with her parents removed to Canada. United in marruage to William Douglas, October 5, 1852, coming to Illinois May 1, 1862. She as converted and joined with her husband the Wesleyan Methodist church. After coming to Elmwood, she united with the Congregational church.   July 15, 1896, her husband died, since then she has made her home with her son in Galesburg, where she fell asleep Saturday Dec 10, 1910 at 5:15 a.m., leaving to mourn her death two sons, William H. or Peoria and Edwin Franklin of Galesburg, Ill., four grandchildren and one sister, Mrs. James Venn and one brother Darius Jones residing in Nebraska. It was her desire to be buried from her sister's home where memorial services were conducted by the pastor of the Congregational church. She is held in loving esteem by all here and her "works do follow her." (Sources: - 4) William - Emigrated from Belleville, Canada to Elmwood, Ill in 1862. His father was born in Ireland and his mother in Mass. (based on 1880 census) He went into the carriage and wagon business on the site where the Elmwood foundry and machine shops later stood and continued in this business until the Fall of 1866. Directory of Advertisers in Elmwood Observer - June 1, 1866   Wm. Douglas & Co. Carriage & Wagon Makers, Near the Depot, - Elmwood, Ill. Would respectively announce to the Farming community, and all others interested, that they are now fully prepared to manufacture all kinds of Carriages & Lumber Wagons. In a style which they warrant to give satisfaction, in respect to both Workmanship and Materials, the work being done under their immediate inspection, and, good iron and well-seasoned lumber only, being used. Open and Caleche Top Buggies made in the most fashonable style. Lumber Wagons with iron or Wooden Axles or Thimble Skeins, and fitted with Seats and Patent Brakes. One Horse Wagons, etc., got up promptly to order. Re-fitting, Reparing done to order. W. E. Phelps & Co. - Peoria Illinois   in 1866 W. J. Phelps, A. L. Tracy, J. A. Vandervoort, L. F. Jones, J. J. Rose, H. P. Tracy and W. E. Phelps organized a stock company for the purpose of working in wood and iron. A machine shop, foundry, wood shop and blacksmith shop were built and fitted with necessary machinery. The company also became proprietors of Rose's tin upsetter, punch and shears, then just patented.   The works were superintended consecutively by J. J. Rose, L. F. Jones, William Douglas and Samuel West. Various manufacturing ventures were tried, but the concern lost money, and finally stopped business altogether. In 1874 W. E. Phelps purchased the interests ... and formed the present concern. (History of Peoria County, Johnson & Co, 1880)   We had assumed he was born in Canada - or perhaps we got this from an earlier Census. In the 1920 census, his son said that he and Sarah had been born in New York)   Then he was in the mercantile business with his brother in law, Harvey Vansickle at the firm of Douglas and Vansickle, In 1871, he sold his interest in the business and formed Douglas and Venn, with his brother in law James Venn, again entering the carriage and wagon making business. In 1878, he bought out Mr. Venn and the firm became Douglas and Son. They made a specialty of fine work, employed 8 men and did a business of $12,000 year.   William was a blacksmith by trade and the oldest established carriage maker in the town. His son Wm. H. Douglass took charge of the farming implement trade when they embarked upon it in 1878.   Mr. Douglas was one of the solid reliable business men of Elmwood, Ill.
