I will be forward enough to jump in without having the entire trail of this informative note. I was wondering if the concerned parties here knew of the connection to South Carolina. Some of the Welsh Baptists from the Gwynedd area migrated to the area on the PeeDee in South Carolina and I visited the present church of the Welsh Baptist congregation several years ago. I must confess to a certain fogginess, since I was not looking for Williams, but I thought that was one of names of the early families. I was trying to trace the movements of Johannes Kolb who left Montgomery County, PA about 1735 and appears with the Welsh Baptists in SC before 1750.

A son of Rev. Thomas Jones, Griffith I believe, also moved to the Carolinas, from this group of Welsh Baptists.
