inquiringmind Posted April 27, 2013 Posted April 27, 2013 I'd like to know if any Williamsons have played an honorable part in LDS history (and how I might go about finding out if I'm related to them)?
rpn Posted April 28, 2013 Posted April 28, 2013 This is one of several links to byu collections of church history indexes. You might find something there. I think there is a collection of journals, a list of people who received temple ordinances in nauvoo, and some other similar things. http://mormonmigration.lib.byu.edu/Search/searchAll/keywords:williamsonYou could also search at josephsmithpapers.org.And why not look for williamson at new family tree for the 1830-1850s and see if anyone shows up in places the saints where at.But easiest to figure out for yourself is to just start backwards from you and keep going until you have linked up all the generations back to the 1830's. If you do this at a family history library, you'll get free access to ancestry.com and other collections that will help you when the census doesn't. 1
