Thomas W. Williams (Los Angeles)
Thomas W. Williams (ca. 1867–1931) was a former coal miner, school principal and church minister who was a member of the Los Angeles, California, City Council between 1929 and 1931. He was the first councilman elected under the 1925 city charter to die in office.
==Background==
Williams was born around 1867〔("Small Army in Council Lists," ''Los Angeles Times,'' May 5, 1929, page B-1 )〕 in Utah and began work in a coal mine when he was "little more than 8, to support his mother, his father having died when he was a baby." He attended grammar and high schools at night and when he was 18 he became principal of a school in Lucas, Iowa. He became a minister of the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, preached and traveled through Europe as a missionary.〔("Councilman Williams Dies," ''Los Angeles Times,'' April 12, 1931, page A-1 )〕
He was married in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, at age 25 to Addie May Cady. They had six children. After the Williamses moved to Los Angeles, they took up residence in the Silver Lake district.〔〔(Location of the Williams residence on "Mapping L.A." )〕
