Father: James W. WILLIAMS b: 17 FEB 1845 in Duplin County,NC Mother: Julia ALBERTSON b: 14 OCT 1849 in Duplin County,NC Claudius was married twice, first marriage to Laura Smith 14 JUN 1891 in Magnolia, NC. Laura died during childbirth. Second marriage was to Ida Smith (Laura's younger sister) b: 14 OCT 1871 in Smith's Township,Duplin County,NC 4 AUG 1892 in Smith Township,NC. Claudius and Laura had one child, Lena Lee Williams. Claudius and Ida had 13 children. My husband's cousin did the research on this family. Claudius was my husband's g-grandfather by way of his daughter Viola Williams. Hope this helps!
