A new business in town was that of George Williams, who in 1902 established an undertaker business. George operated the business from his home at the J. Rawson House, 7 Pleasant Street (UPT #158). In 1918, his brother Fred Williams took over the business and operated out of his home, the old Newell Forbush House at 45 Main Street (UPT #40). In 1985, a large commercial funeral home building was constructed next door (UPT #330).
