I am stuck on these three. Tina, You didn't really give enough info about the Williamson's to let us help you - perhaps you could provide some info such as dates, location, etc.? Regarding William Alexander Smith, I'd check the 1850 census for any Smiths with a William, Bill, Alexander, Alex, etc. about 15 years old. Then learn all you can about the parents of William Alexander and perhaps you'll be able to find out when they died and that their estate settlement included William and Mary Smith. Or you may find that they gave land to William and Mary Smith. The census will give you approximate ages of the parents, where they were born, and probably some siblings of William's. Good Luck!
