Notes


William H. Williams

Family story: William H Williams owned several thousands of acres of land, with oil on it, in east Texas. There was a despute going on about it for years, dealing with 13 deeds and Wills.

William H Williams born 3/19/1823.

1850 Census for Jones County, Mississippi - William is listed in the household of Thomas Williams.


Ruth Penny Landrum

I've searched long and hard for Ruth Landrums husband, but never could find the right one. Grandpa told us his name was William H Williams....I saw you had Thomas and was wondering where you got the information. There are a million William H Williams for sure. We were told he left for Texas before Ruthie and by the time she got there with the girls he had left with someone else. - Debbie Martin

Ruth (Ruthie) moved back to Jones County from East Texas. Her husband, William O. or William H. Williams had left her for another woman when they came to Texas. - Ken Williams, Email: kiloquebec4cx@peoplepc.com

Carisade Ruthe Landrum/Williams married William H Williams of the Thomas Williams family of Jones Co Ms.

Research needed: Instead of one individual, named Ruth Penny Landrum, some have a Ruth Landrum and a Penny Landrum, possibly sisters.

A marriage license issued in Woodville, Tyler County, Texas, dated May 22, 1856. It is for Mr. John Byrd Williams and Miss Penelope Landrum. John is 25 and Penny is 20 so born about 1830 like your data shows.

Penny/Penelope Landrum born 1830 in Ms. She is living with Thomas Williams and Susannah Carroll on the 1850 Jones Co Census.

Ruthe [Williams] is in Texas on the 1880 Nacogdoches Census as Mother-in-Law to Daniel Young.
