Archivist’s Notes
Brother of Matthew B. Du Bois
Century Memorial
William A. DuBois, a man of retiring personality, had long been engaged in the administration of an old estate and the dispensing of charity, along with his brother [Matthew B. DuBois], also a member of this Club. The two brothers, who had worked together throughout their later life, died within almost a fortnight of one another at the ending of the old year 1918 and the beginning of 1919.
