I am new to this list and would love to have information on Alfred A. Williams born October 7, 1910 in Mariettta Oklahoma, Father, James E. Williams born 1868 possibly in Mississippi according to Alfreds birth certificate, James E. died in an asylum in Fort Supply OK in 1939. His Mother Sallie M. Thacker born 1870 in Tennessee, I cannot find where she is buried.This family stumps me. I find her parents in Texas in 1880 as D.R. Thacker, and I. B.Thacker in Marietta Oklahoma in 1900 as Payton R. Thacker and Julia B. also in 1910, and 1930. I am really stumped on the Williams part of the family. James E. Williams and Sallie M. Thacker married in Overbrook, Oklahoma 25 March 1895. James E's parents are rumored to be Abram or Abraham Williams and Mary Unknown. Alfred is my grandfather on my mothers side of the family. Any help would be appreciated.
Bobby & list members: As Williams descendants possibly our best chance of ever getting our ancestors "sorted out" is to find a Williams surnamed male descendant of our known ancestor and ask them to do dna testing. This dna testing can be done through our Williams dna site at FTDNA. Please seriously consider having your Williams surnamed male cousins tested. It may be your only chance of finding our Williams ancestors. My Dad Burton F. Williams, who 90 years old, was tested in December 05.
