Vital Records, Otsego Co. NY, May 1877

 Freeman's Journal, Cooperstown, NY, May 3, 1877

Deaths

At Carr's Hotel in this village [Cooperstown, Otsego Co. NY], on the 28th ult., Charles W. Hawley,  aged 47 years.

Mr. H. came to Cooperstown in October last, then evidently in consumption, and he gradually failed in strength until he died on Saturday morning.  He was a very patient and uncomplaining sufferer all through his sickness, coming to the general table as long as his strength permitted and was pleasant and agreeable to those with whom he formed an acquaintance.  Mr. Hawley was born in Canandaigua, in this State [Ontario Co. NY], and lived for many years in Milwaukee, which place he called his home.  He had been for some years a resident of Florida and came from there to this village.  He was educated as a lawyer.  A man peculiar in his habits and reticent to all but intimate friends, he won the respect of those who came into intercourse with him, by his genial manners and intelligent conversation.

He was attended in his last hours by his son and only brother.  His remains were taken to Milwaukee and then to Nashotah, Wisconsin, to rest by his wife, with whom he wandered in past times about those sweet waters that he loved so well.
