"Killam's wife was the widow of Millie Weston, Sister of Edmund Harvey, and a well taught woman for the times. It is a little remarkable that her two husbands, Weston and Killam, were both drowned in the Connecticut while engaged in rafting. She died in November, 1781 and was buried at the corner of the Cushing cemetery where the roads meet. By her side John Killam, brother to Charles, was buried not long after that, but no headstones were ever set up for either. "[note on this article indicates that the information source was Miss Mary Harvey, 1870]
