My brick wall is Jessie May Williams, born January 1870, location unknown, parents unknown. She married James Wiley Williams on October 31, 1885, in Lawrence County, MO. Both parties were underage, so parental consent was required. Her parent was listed as F.M. Williams. This could be her father or her mother. I have searched the entire 1880 census of the United States. So far I have not found any father / daughter combination with these names. Where was this family in 1880? Who were Jessie's parents and siblings? As you research your own Williams families, please try to remember and note any records regarding Jessie, Jessie May (Mae) or J.M. Williams, female, age 10 in 1880, age 1 in 1870. Larry
