    1. [OHGALLIA] William Williams and Mary Watts
    2. Diana M Cronhardt
    3. I was wondering if any one was related to the Williams family. William Williams, born 1757 and Mary Watts, born 1776 were married in Greenbrier, 21 May 1795. I have a lot of information on Mary Watts family but very little on Williams family before he arrived in Greenbrier. WILLIAM WILLIAMS-William Williams entered the service from Botetourt County, Virginia in the spring of 1780. He was under Col. Campbell and they joined the troops at Hillsborough, North Carlolina on the day that Col.Green took command. He served eighteen months before he was discharged. He was in the battles of Camden & Guilford and at the Seige of Nine-Six. He served wholly in North Carolina and South Carolinas. He sold his discharge to Samuel Price and William McClung for four or five gallons of whiskey. William made application for his pension 13 Aug 1832 while a resident of Walnut Township,Gallia County. His claim was allowed. William was born in Fairfax County, Virginia 17 Sep 1757. He enlisted in Botetourt County and lived in Greenbrier County, Virginia until 1817 when he moved to Gallia County, Ohio. William married Mary Watts 21 May 1795 in Greenbrier County, Virginia. She was born 20 Nov 1779 in Greenbrier County, Virginia and died 25 Dec 1860 in Gallia County, Ohio. She made application for a pension 13 June 1850 and it was executed. William died 23 Aug 1832 in Walnut Township and is buried at Bethesda Cemetery, Walnut Township, Gallia County. I have been trying to find his parents and his siblings for years. William Williams and Mary Watts are my great3 grandparents.

    3. Diana, Eliza E. Williams (b. 2 Oct 1842, Washington Co., OH, d. 22 Jul 1903, Wakita, OK) was my great grandmother. I believe she was the daughter of Watkin Williams (b. 1793) but I'm not sure. Watkin was from Wales, and Ancestry.com has several hits, but nothing I can hang on to. If there is any relationship, William Williams and Mary Watts would have been from the previous generation. What do you think?
