Ok, per Ann's request: This is a working file of Williamson Mims, my ancestor. Do not hold this as gospel, though an awful lot of it has been proven. Other researchers of this lineage are: Cliff and Nelda Mims Smith <[email protected]>; Beth Fazekas <[email protected]>[email protected] <[email protected]> and me Laura Schmidt <[email protected]> > I am copying to all these folks and they can make corrections. If you see the initials Fnu it means First name unknown, and Lnu means last name unknown.
