↑ No death record or gravestone located for Josiah Langdon Williams. Clearly the Williams Genealogy has an error, and since the birth it shows is found in the VRs, the death date they give appears to be in error. The 1810 death date shown on this page has the same day of the year, just a different year, but a source for that date is not found and no basis for it, if any exists, has been found, even in an Internet family tree?
