Historia biográfica
Stanley (Stan) Arthur Williams was born on 14 Apr 1916 to Ethel Scarfe and Frank Williams in Summerland, British Columbia. His father was a newspaperman and owned many small newspapers. As a young man, Stanley worked by his father’s side learning every aspect of the newspaper trade.
By the late 1930’s Stan was working as a photographer for the Vancouver Sun. In 1940 Stan married Margaret Giles in St. James Church in Vancouver, British Columbia. They had four children – Diane, David, Jean, and Patricia.
In 1943, Margaret and Stan moved to Edmonton, where Stanley worked as a legislature report for the Edmonton Bulletin. Stan joined the Edmonton Journal as assistant city editor in 1948. He remained with the Edmonton Journal for 33 years, retiring in 1981.
Stan and Margaret co-authored a travel series in the paper. Their first destinations were reached by road pulling their trailer, earning them the title of ‘Six Wheels’. Stan was also a church leader, as well as highly interested in history. Stan and Margaret received a Recognition Award from the Edmonton Historical Board in 1976.
Stanley Arthur Williams died 9 May 2007 and he is buried at the Beechmount Cemetery in Edmonton.
