I enjoy the freedom of deleting or reading a post that might give me a clue to my Williams genealogy headache. Sometimes it's easy to vent a frustration without thinking of the big picture. For anyone who might have information on a John Williams of Missouri who married Mary McGinty. I have no information on them at all except a son, James Alexander, (my great grandfather) who was born on Dec. 3, 1870 in Madison County, Mine LaMotte, Missouri. Family oral history has that he was orphaned at a young age and went to live with an uncle. I find him in the 1900 census living in Jefferson County Missouri with his father in law, Frank Stroupe and wife, Elizabeth Stroupe. I would love to have some help finding more information on his parents. Just a hint or clue to get me going again. I've searched the libraries and am at the brick wall. So I appreciate reviewing the roll calls just in case some one else might have a link to John and Mary Williams.
