My grandfather was Leigh Arthur Williams, born March 2, 1867 in Hesper, Wineshiek, Iowa. I do not have the info in front of me at this moment and want to send this much off tonight, but as I remember, both of his parents were born in Vermont according to the 1880 (I think) census -- info sent to me kindly by another lister. Unfortunately, I don't have the list of his siblings handy. He married Elizabeth Grace Bruce on March 1, 1893. I have quite a lot of info on her family thanks to connecting with a 3rd cousin via the Bruce site. They had 3 children --- Howard Bruce Williams (my father) born December 25, 1893 in Pelican Rapids, Minnesota, died -- 1973. Harry Niles Williams and Nell Grace(?) Williams Currie I am interested in knowing more about Leigh Arthur's parents (his mother was a Taber) and also in contacting descendants of Harry. I am in touch with one of Nell's children. Would like to hear from Williams who recognize the name Hesper, Winneshiek, Iowa.
