Is your gedcom posted anywhere online? Can you tell me more about the family? My husband descends through Lewis/Louis F. Williams who moved to GA? and then Talladega County, AL. He was there during the Civil War and was an instructor for the Camp of Instruction for new recruits. He was married to Letiticia (unknown). I think Nehemiah was born in NC. Does that sound right. Also when he first moved to MS, I think it would have been Mississippi Territory, became a state about 1819 more or less and I think they were there about 1809. Do you know Susannah's maiden name? Their son, Lewis T. Williams,born abt 1838 in GA, died young (between 1870-1880)likely in AL. He was a butcher and a sheriff. Lewis T.'s widow Susan F. (unknown) Williams moved to Cleburne Co., AL where she died between 1880 and 1900. One of the things that's confused me is info online that says Louis F. Williams was born in or from SC, went to GA, went to AL. I stumbled across the connection to Pikc Co., MS by accident and then began to fill in some of the blank spots. My husband is a direct descendant of Nehemiah and Susannah Williams. Anything else you can add would be helpful. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
