okay, the Williams I have goes back to: Joseph Williams, unk. date of birth (dob), son of Carr and Khesse Hall Williams, married to Patsy Thompson between 1845-50 in Lee County, Va. They had 14 (!!!!) children, George, Emily, James, Vinnie (Graham), Keel, Alfred, Dudley, Creed Berry (my great grandfather), Mary, Morgan, and a set of twins still born. Ole' Joe hadn't enough to do so when Patsy croaked (after having 14 kids, I would do the same for some rest) he married Nancy Napier in 1883 in Lee County, Va. and they had three kids (if I was his wife I'd make sure he was standing up more), William Patton, Emory Blackston and Henry Howard Williams I think Joseph (the one that started all of this) was born around 1825, he's buried (face up of course) in Miller Chapel Cemetery. Do you know anything about a book called "Early Settlers of Lee County, Va.", volume 1? If this does not help or is not what you are looking for I at least hope you've had a giggle reading this.
