Hope,
The last will and testament of Matthew J. Williams names these three children as well as the Harrison children born of Betsy's first marriage to Clement King Harrison of Richmond Co., GA.Also recall some mention of the Estate of Clement K. Harrison as is related to the subjects in connection with the Estate of Matthew Jouett Williams.
While I haven't been able to connect this William Richardson to Walker Richardson, RWS from Virginia, there are other related marriages between the allied families which connect with the Brewer families who migrated to near St. Stephens in Washington Co., MS Territory 1794-1800 AND the Dunn line, Gatewood Dunn who, if memory serves, is son of Waters Dunn and Sarah Gatewood.Their daughter Clara Dunn married Thomas Richardson, son of Daniel Richardson, Jr. and Fanny Long.Daniel Richardson, Jr. being the son of Daniel Richardson, Sr. (the immigrant) who migrated from Culpepper Co., VA to Augusta, GA by 1777.
At any rate, Elizabeth Williams m. (1) Clement K. Harrison in Richmond Co., GA and had two children (boy and girl) and possibly a third child who appears to marry someone named Simmons in LWT of Matthew J. Williams,and m. (2) William Richardson and had three children.Both Betsy and William are buried in Gwinett Co., GA.
I also found some references to an estate in Gwinnett Co., GA where William Richardson and his brother-in-law Matthew Williams were administrators, it appears, in behalf of another sibling of Matthew and Elizabeth Williams.
