Interestingly, the records from my Williamson family from Scotland can only be accessed with documentation that is approved by the church to establish my relationship, and can only be viewed at Salt Lake. Their unions were "sealed" by proxy, his son was a member of the LDS. The information is not available to local family history centers. There may be many other reasons that records are not available, but that's one.

Linda, one of my 3gfathers was Chancey Williamson born 1824 Onondaga County, NY, father John Williamson. Family moved to Ashtabula County Ohio when he was eight years old. As a young man in 1850 he moved to Iowa where he was married and raised a large family. He was for many years a Priest in the revised LDS church in Shelby County Iowa. We don't know what country these Williamson's came from.
