Subject: Williams, Lodowick-POWG From: gslat Date: December 20, 1999 WILLIAMS, WILSON. (p.329): This record should be corrected to read that he was a son of Lodowick Williams of Camden County, N.C., and is so shown in Vol. II, p.323- The William Williams erroneously named as his father, was probably his uncle. Lodowick Williams served in the North Carolina Line during the Revolutionary War, and is shown in the 1790 Census of Camden County, N.C. WILLIAMS, WILSON. 1760-1803 CAMDEN Wilson Williams was born in North Carolina about 1760, a son of William Williams. The elder Williams died in Glynn County in the 1790s. Wilson Williams' wife was named Elizabeth but her maiden name is unknown. They had five children (order of birth uncertain): 1. Esther m. Rigdon Brown. Moved to Fla. 2. Christiana m. David Goodgame Jones. 3. Hettie died single. 4. Harriet died single 5. William H. m. Ann Jane Church, Jan. 30, 1822, dau. of Dr. Lemuel Church of St. Marys. Died 1825. Wilson Williams moved to Camden County about 1786 and was granted 150 acres of land there, Jan. 22, 1789. Joined by his wife he sold this land to Redding Blount Dec. 27, 1794, This land had been surveyed for him Nov. 12, 1786, which evidently marked the time when he moved to Camden (see deed book A, p. 217, Camden County). Mr. Williams died testate in 1803. His will dated Dec. 7, 1802, was probated Aug. 17, 1803, in Camden Court of Ordinary. His home-place in St. Marys was devised to his wife. A division of his slaves was had between Jones and wife, Hickman and wife, and Wm. H. Williams, as "sole heirs" of their father, Sept. 21, 1821 (see deed book "K", p. 451, Camden). This would indicate the daughters Harriet, Hetty, and Esther, were dead and had died without heirs. ==== SCROOTS Mailing List ==== Go To: #, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z, Main |
