Harold Grant WILLIAMS, b. 1887 NY,m. Edith BALL. His parents were Walter WILLIAMS b. 1867 & Lena ELLIOTT Walter's parents: Charles WILLIAMS b 1838 & Polly SCOTT Charles' parents: Daniel WILLIAMS,b 1795 in CT, & Mary LESTER, b. 1799. Daniel and Mary are the couple that moves from CT to Bolivar, Alleghany County,NY. The clan stays in Bolviar until about 1920 when they show up in Hanover on the 1920 census. It appears as if some move to Wisconsin. If you are part of this Williams clan I'd appreciate any information you can share. I'd like to find out when the Williams' came to America and if they came from England. Thanks. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
