Dear Williams Cousins and Suspects, My major Williams brick wall is GGGrandpa Isaac himself, can't find out anything about him before his Tennessee days. In Tennessee, the family owned property and may have lived in both Fayette County and Hardeman County. I have not been able to learn GGGranny Nancy Temperance's maiden name. Their daughter Martha Temperance Williams who married Jehoiakim Griffin is my next in line. Don't know much about the rest of their children, either. They all lived in Tennessee before Civil War days during the time when cotton was king, as well as afterwards.
