A question about Eleazer Williams: Does anyone know who his father, Thomas Williams, married? What were the names of Thomas' siblings, if any? Did Eleazer get married and what was his wife's name? Did Eleazer have any siblings and did he have any children and what were their names? I would appreciate any help with this information. --- WILLIAMS-D-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > ATTACHMENT part 1 message/rfc822 > > WILLIAMS-D Digest Volume 02 : Issue 126 > > Today's Topics: > #1 [WILLIAMS] Morgan County, GA > [DEHucks@aol.com] > #2 Unidentified subject!
