I know this is a very long shot, but I'm looking for any information on my James A. Williams. I can't connect him to any other Williams family in the area, the only proof I have that he was born in Maury Co TN is he stated it on his marriage app. in Livingston Co KY. Can anyone please help me with this family? Sincerely, Judy F. Lee Descendants of James A. WILLIAMS Generation No. 1 1.
