Williams Lineages Underway

Lineage: My earliest proven ancestor is Roger Williams (Roger Sr.), who married Mary unknown and stayed in Surry Co. until his death in ca. 1704. Roger?s first definitive appearance is in the 1668 Surry Co., Virginia tythables, where he is enumerated with his lifelong friend, Christopher Lewis, who was quite a bit older than Roger Sr. From Roger?s will, we know he had at least 3 sons; Roger, Samuel and George.
It is proving quite difficult to determine which, of the many Williams is our immigrant patriarch. A very strong possibility is in a land patent, in Isle of Wight Co., VA, to John Upton in 1638, for the transport of Roger Williams and Christopher Lewis (among others). It is thought that Roger (who I will call Roger the Elder) had a few children by wife unknown. Other possible children have been theorized to be John and Lewis Williams (of Isle of Wight). Another possibility is that the Roger of 1638 was the brother of John of 1640 (married Anne Whitley). It is suspected that Roger the Elder was the father of our Roger Sr, but proof has been very difficult to find because of the scarcity of records from that area at that time.
Roger Sr. and Mary had a son, George Williams who married Joannah Andrews and moved to Bertie Co., NC around 1720 as indicated by land transactions. One of their children, Richard Williams, who married Mary/Elizabeth Mann, stayed in Bertie until his death in 1761. One of their children, George Williams moved to Chatham Co., NC after his service in the Rev. War and after the death of his first wife, Sarah Hollowell (?). After his arrival in Chatham Co., he married Delpha Kelly. Some of their descendents still live in Chatham Co. today. I descend from George's son, Henry Williams, who married Mary Jenkins. Many of their children moved to DeSoto Co., MS before the Civil War. One of their sons, who remained, was George Jackson Williams. He served as county Sheriff (1865-1874) and Williams Township, Chatham Co., NC was named in his honor. One of his children, George Sanford Williams, served in the Civil War and was wounded three times, including at Gettysburg. He married Lucinda Upchurch. My great-grandfather, Henry McDonnel Williams, moved to Carborro, Orange Co., NC (next door to Chatham) and between his two wives, had over 20 children, 18 of which lived. |

| Lineage: I'm interested in a Daniel Williams that settled in the Lawrence Co, AR area in the 1820's. He is shown on several Tax lists throughout the 1820's. He came from Chenango Co., NY. His wife's name was Philadelphia Parker. He had several children, including Parker Williams (b. ca 1805). Daniel Williams was born around 1770. I'm trying to locate where he lived in Lawrence county, as well as where he is buried. |

| Lineage: I am looking for a Sarah Elizabeth Williams that married Jerome Axley Housewright. Sarah's father was Franklin but no name as yet on mother. Don't even know where they came from. Hope to get into some census reports. Believe they married in texas and that is where Sarah & Jerome lived in Bell Co., Tx. Sarah was born in 1868 in Bell Co. and she died in 1916. Any help on this family would be dearly welcomed. |

Lineage: My grandmother was Alice Esther Williams of Lancaster County, South Carolina. Her father was David Aurelius Williams who was a second sargeant in the "Lancaster Invincibles" of the Civil War. He was
wounded at First Battle of Manassas. His father was Uriah Williams from Lancaster County. David R. Williams was Uriah's father. Here comes the rub. Uriah's father was named William Williams. According to what I can find, he was born in 1715 and 1737. He was born in Hanover County, Virginia, Millwood, S. C. , and North Carolina. He was married to Mary Bunn from North Carolina. Everyone seems to agree on his marriage. He died in Lancaster, S. C. and is buried in Fork Hill Cemetery, in Lancaster County. Everyone agrees on that fact too. Has anyone else written you about this line and do you have any help for me? I have a list of possible fathers.
