In Reply to: Re: Descendents of Mary Elizabeth "Betsy" (Williams) Williams Turner by Sheryl Williams of 18842

I am still hoping to connect with descendents of
Mary Elizabeth "Betsy" (Williams) Williams-Turner.
Mary Elizabeth Williams, [her maiden name was Williams]
a widow with two children (Malkijah & Teresa) who married Winslow Turner II/Jr. in Lincoln County, Missouri. Winslow & Elizabeth had eight children. The family traveled to DeWitt's Colony abt.1828.
I descend through her first marriage to her cousin William Williams, and their son Malkijah "Lige" Williams.


Corrections welcome!
