William Hudson Nichols, Jr.
He was an U.S. Marine attached to the Peking Legation Guard under a Major Waller, U.S. Marine Corps.
On 15 November 1898, at the age of 25, he enlisted at Mare Island Navy Yard. In June 1900, at the age of 27, he died while attempting to save the lives of Americans and other innocent victims of the murderous Boxer bandits.
During the month of October, 1901, his father received a letter from Marine Headquarters stating that his son's body had arrived in San Francisco on board the Army Transport Dix, and unless the Corps heard differently from the it was planned to inter the remains at the Presidio National Cemetery in San Francisco. Mr. Nichols immediately wired instructions to have his son's body shipped to Folsom for burial. Sadly, Bill's body had been misplaced. At last his remains were located and some sixteen months after his death young Bill Nichols was laid to rest. His final resting place is the old Odd Fellows Cemetery, now part of the Lakeside Memorial Lawn Cemetery of Folsom. He is buried alongside his mother, who died while he was in China, his father, and an unidentified relative.
