WILLIAMS posted by Dave Williams on Saturday, October 3, 1998

WILLIAMS; Allen Co., Ohio USA; 1848-1862. I’m looking for information about my WILLIAMS family line, Enos WILLIAMS moved to a farm in Allen CO., in 1848, near Elida. He lived on the farm until 1858 then moved to his son’s home (Gersham WILLIAMS) near Lima. He lived there until he died in 1862. His wife died in 1856, but don't know anything about her, not even her name. It could be I have Gersham and Enos mixed up, so this story could be Gersham’s story. Gersham had one son that I know of Swain O. WILLIAMS. Could you please help me find any information about Enos, his wife or Gersham. Thank you!

WILLIAMS; Allen County, Ohio, USA; 1850-1860. I'm looking for information about my great, great, great grandfather Gersham S. WILLIAMS. He was born in New Jersey in 1817. His father, my great, great, great, great grandfather was born in New Jersey in 1781. I believe that they left New Jersey and lived in Pennsylvania during the 1830's. I think that they resided in Licking County, Ohio during the 1840's and then moved to Allen County in the early 1850's. Gersham WILLIAMS Sr. was married to "Fanny" (don't know her last name) and had at least four children, Gersham, Permenas, Nelson and Lillis. Gersham S. WILLIAMS was married to "Mary" (don't know her last name either). They had at least eight children, Louisa, Richard, William, Rebecca, David, Amos G (my great, great grandfather), Mary and Phoebe. I have lost track of Gersham WILLIAMS Sr and Gersham S. WILLIAMS after the 1860's. I'm interested in the maiden names for "Fanny" and "Mary" and any other information about Gersham Sr and Gersham S. after 1860.
