They emigrated to Missouri in the early 1800's and settled in Howard County and then Polk County Missouri. There are several Williams listed on the 1840 Census for Howard County - Benjamin Williams William D. Williams Price Williams Uriah Williams Willoughby Williams Joel F. Williams John Williams Feland Williams Edward Williams - Revolutionary War Veteran James Williams T.C. Williams Joseph Williams F.E. Williams John Williams Williams Williams Powell Williams and Polk Co. Census 1840 J.L. Williams Elijah Williams T.A. Williams Elijah Williams Homer Williams Lovell Williams T.C. Williams Martha Williams In the Howard Co. Census, Elijah was listed there in 1830. Do you recognize any of these names? Thank you for checking. Best Regards - Julie Pishny
