I study history and family genealogy, and initially signed up here to give corrections to the Henry Williams (missionary) page.

Much more up-to-date information on the early roots of this Williams family is now available, making some of the information derived from earlier references cited in the main article not be as valid as once thought. (For example, most earlier works have shown incorrectly that Henry was born at Nottingham). The sources of changes or additions made by myself on Wiki should be found here. Reading of the recently acquired 1794 letters of Thomas's (Henry's father) will give more insight as to the Nottingham move. The source of most or all of the relative birth / marriage / death dates are given on the same site at this page.
