Hi. You are the second person today to ask about the Williams family who were some of the earliest settlers of Guernsey. Does Levi Williams or Dr. Heslip Williams ring a bell? If so, I can put you in touch with the other researcher. Regardless, I will add your Williams ancestors to my list and I will let you know if I come across them while reading the articles. I have 2 small children so it's going to take me a little time to read all 28 articles but I promise to let you know if I find anything.Glad to help!Elizabeth> From: Tltreat37@aol.com> Date: Fri, 13 Jun 2008 15:27:02 -0400> To: ohguerns@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [OHGUERNS] Local Historical Sketches> > Hello> > My name is Tom Treat and I live in New Mexico.> > My interest is the Quaker Williams family of Salesville area specifically > Joseph Williams and son Nimrod Williams.
