Williams Lineages Underway

  This section is for people to post the various Williams lineages they are working on. This is an effort to publicize that brick wall you may or may not be hitting in hopes of finding others who either have information or are at the same wall. This section is now in a database and to make surfing the entries easier, I have set it up to display 15 lineages at a time. Simply use the next and previous buttons to navigate around!

   And, as another improvement to the site, you can now add your own lineage to the list without having to email me directly! Simply visit the lineage submission form and follow the instructions! It's as easy as that!

Hello,
I'm seeking information on my grandmother's family. She died young in her early 50s in Canada. I know so little about her because my dad was just 14 when she passed and he too is now gone. Her remaining family should have been in Weston Super Mare, Somerset England, but I have discovered that one brother arrived in Canada before her - Henry P Williams. He is believed to have gone on to British Columbia and may have married a Doris Craig. There were ten or so siblings altogether in my grandmother's family but I've had a lot of trouble finding any descendants of them to find out what happened to them all. The names of her siblings were:
Florence Ellen Williams b 1873
Herbert E Williams b 1875
Edith Ann Williams b 1876
Lilly Rosina Williams b. 1877
Kate Elizabeth M Williams b. 1878
Francis John Williams b. 1880
Gertie Ethel Williams b. 1881
Francis J Williams b. 1883
Henry P Williams b. 1886
Jessica Beatrice Williams b. 1886 (my grandmother)
Hilda Eleanor Williams b. 1890
To my knowledge it was only Henry P and Jessica B that went to Canada.
The mother of all these was Ellen Elizabeth Knight - father was Edward Williams. Beyond this it gets very sketchy. Family lore says they are from Wales before they settled in England.
Would love to figure this out.
Kind Regards,
Kerry

I am searching for the parents of Mary Elizabeth Jenkins. She was born 11-16-1876 to J. T. Williams and Peralie Carter in Caldwell County Texas. Mary married Henry Eugene Jenkins and she died in 1918 in Orange county Texas. I cannot locate her parents in the census and have been unable to locate any information on this family. Their names were on her death certificate and it says J. T. was born in Arkansas and Peralie was born in Texas. I appreciate any help you can offer me.

James McHenry Williams,
my great grandfather was born in either TN or VA in December 1827, according to the family Bible. Once he stated his bp was VA and another time he claimed it was TN. In 1849 in Shelby Cty. TN, he married Mary Elizabeth Johnston, daughter of Samuel Johnston of Concordia, Fayette Cty.,TN. The Johnston family was from SC. Williams died in 1871 and his will was filed in Tipton County, TN, and he was burried in Burrough cemetary in Fayette Cty., Tn.
__?__ Refinas McKnight was his surety for his marriage license and later witness to his will.
Who were his ancestors and siblings? Where did he come from when he settled in the corner of the three above named counties? Was he there along time before he married or did he settle there shortly before his marriage? I have not located any clues to help me answer these questions. Please help!

Williams was born in 1757 and died in 1836 in Rockingham N.C. He married Mary J Shrieve in abt. 1805 in Rockingham N.C. in my research I've found William W. Williams father was William Williams married to Sarah Mitchell I believe they were from VA.
Please if anyone has infor. please let me know.
