Notes:

George Collier Williams died either in Fort Smith, Arkansas or Muskogee, Oklahoma, immediately across the Arkansas river.


Birth:
Eric Williams reports his birth as 1857.

Census:
In the 1860 census, George is listed as 3 years old.

Census:
George reports that he was 46 at his last birthday, he was born in Mississippi, his father was born in Mississippi, and his mother in Alabama.

Census:
In 1910, George Williams worked in the railroad roundhouse.

Census:
In the 1920 census, George's father is reported as being from France with French as his first language and his mother is from Illinois. This is clearly bogus. He is working as a shoe repairman. I wonder if he works with Granddad's father. He is listed as 64 years old.

Notes:

Lorenzo Dow Williams was killed during the Civil War near Franklin,TN. He was wounded on November 30, 1864 and died December 1. Some sources report his death as 1863.

However, I have not yet found a military service record. There is an Lorenzo Dow Williams in the Illinois Colored troops (not him) and one in the 24th Mississippi Inf. That one is also not him, since he was from Greene County, MS and was discharged in January 1862 from Fernandina, FL with injuries.

Census:
In the 1850 census, the family next to Lorenzo's is a J.P. Williams, age 67. Possibly his grandfather. In that family is a Dixon Williams, age 17.

Census:
In 1860, Lorenzo and Mary are located in Carthage, Mississippi, along with David Dixon, her father.

Lorenzo, enumerated as L.D. Williams, family 635 in Carthage, had a personal estate of $500 and is listed as a merchant. There is another L.D. Willams, just a couple of pages earlier, age 46 (so 20 years older), also a merchant, with a real eastate of $6000 and a personal estate of $21050. This older L.D. Williams must be the one listed in the slave schedule, since there are about 12 slaves listed in that household. $21050 is a much more reasonable estate for that family. This could be an uncle of Lorenzo since is father is supposed to be Solomon.

Military:
Enlisted on 2 May 1862 in Co. W, 6th Mississippi Reg't Volunteers, Capt. N.H. Allen's Company for a period of 3 years. Age - 25 years. For the period 24 Jun 1862 to 1 Sept 1862, he is listed as on detached service.

Listed as promoted on 16 May 1863 to 3rd Corporal.

For July & August 1863, he is listed as absent without leave since 21 July 1863.

For Sept & Oct 1863, he is listed as absent without leave since 21 July 1863. Rank reduced from 3rd Corporal on 31 Aug 1863.

For Nov & Dec 1863, present.

For July & Aug 1864, present. Joined from desertion 20 May 1864.

No record of his death at the Battle of Franklin.

Lorenzo married Mary E. Dickson before 1854. Mary (daughter of David Dickson and Eliza W. Johnson) was born in 1835 in Alabama, United States; died before 1920 in Arkansas, United States. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Mary E. Dixon came with her youngest brother and four children to DeSoto County, now Tate Co., MS.

Mary must have married A.J. Gates in Mississippi around 1872 since their daughter was born there in 1873. That means they did not move to Arkansas until after 1873.

Census:
In 1900, Mary reports that she has had 4 children, three of whom are still alive in 1900.

Census:
In 1910, Mary still reports 4 children, 3 alive.
