Carolyn, I've done some research on Delaware Longs, but I don't know who your Milly is. "Milly" is probably a nickname, and, possibly, she is Richard's mother in law and thus not a Long by birth. You might explore these websites for clues: <A HREF="http://www.archives.lib.de.us/">Delaware Public Archives</A> <A HREF="http://delgensoc.org/">Delaware Genealogical Society</A> <A HREF="http://nabbhistory.ssu.edu/">NABB CENTER</A> There is a Williamsville in southern Delaware, near the Maryland border, and there are a lot of Williams in the area. Also, a lot of residents of southern DE moved to Ohio around the time of the Revolution, so it's indeed likely that you have roots in Delaware.
