In the marriage records of Sumner County, TN, there is a marriage: Abisha Williams to Peggy Brigance, 13 MAR 1816.

So perhaps this Abisha Williams and Peggy Brigance are the parents of Leroy Thomas Williams, Sr., although that marriage would have taken place some 19 days AFTER the birth of Leroy Thomas Williams, Sr.

5. Leroy Thomas "Tom"3 Williams (Leroy "Lee" Thomas2, probably Abisha1) was born 13 May 1848 in <Bedford County>, TN1, and died 05 Sep 1920 in <Bedford County, Tennessee>1. He married (1) Mary Caroline Lentz 21 Dec 1872 in Bedford County, Tennessee2, daughter of Samuel Lentz and Louisa Springer. She was born 23 Jan 18543, and died 10 May 18783. He married (2) Kitty W. Bruster 12 Dec 1878 in Bedford County, Tennessee, daughter of Hugh Bruster and Nancy Lentz. She was born 02 Nov 1861 in TN4, and died 02 May 1935 in <Bedford County, Tennessee>4. He married (3) Annie unknown ABT. 1907 in PROB. TN. She was born ABT. 1867 in TN.

 

Notes for Leroy Thomas "Tom" Williams:

Leroy Thomas "Tom" Williams, Jr. was married three times. His first two wives were 1st cousins (i.e., Mary Caroline Lentz and Kitty Bruster were cousins because they were both grand-daughters of Benjamin F. Lentz).

 

Sometimes Thomas Williams is confused with Thomas E. Williams of Bedford County, TN of about the same era. This confusion arises by virtue of the death certificate of his son, William Williams, whereupon it is stated that his father was Thomas E. Williams. Whether this is an error of ignorance or communication, I know not. In any case, THIS Thomas Williams is the one buried next to his brother Zachary and their parents with a tombstone reading "Thomas Lee Williams". From the census records, it can be seen (particularly in the 1860 census, where he is called "L. T., Jr.") that he is more properly called Leroy Thomas Williams, Jr., and that he was by the name "Tom", and probably also sometimes "Thomas". I believe he was called by his middle name to distinguish him from his father, Leroy Thomas Williams, Sr., who was called by "Lee", as in, short for "Leroy". I believe it was this name truncation ("Leroy" to "Lee") which led to Leroy Thomas Williams, Jr. being buried as "Thomas Lee Williams".

I got this e-mail from Cheryl Zelek [[email protected]] following a post I made to [email protected]:

 

This is what I have on your Samuel Lentz- he is the son of Benjamin Franklin

Lentz & Penelope Bussey, grandson of Benjamin Fite and Rosanna Fite,

great-grandson of John Lentz and Catherine Culp and Johann Pieter Veit/Peter

Fite and Margehet Eve --???--. I descend from both John Lentz/Catherine Culp

lines as well as the Johann Pieter Veit/Peter Fite/Margehet Eve ??? line. My

4th great grandfather was a brother to Rosanna Fite and I also descend from

Benjamin and Rosanna's son, George Lentz.

Documentation for Lentz information:

I have merged info from the Neeley database. I presume that these are the same people. I have no evidence other than that below.

 

There was a Haley Williams (21 OCT 1877-26 NOV 1906), wife of H. S. Neeley (probably Henry Spencer Neeley) buried in Mt. Lebanon Cemetery, Bedford County, Tennessee.

H. Spencer Neeley (25 JAN 1872-15 OCT 1962) is buried next to Haley Williams, and also to what is probably his second wife, Alice L. (maiden name unknown) (03 APR 1882-07 AUG 1969).

Notes for Henry Spencer Neeley:

In the mill with his father when he was a young man. One would work in the day and one at night. Closed around 1890.

 

H. Spencer Neeley (25 JAN 1872-15 OCT 1962) is buried next to Haley Williams, and also to what is probably his second wife, Alice L. (maiden name unknown) (03 APR 1882-07 AUG 1969).

 

Is he the same Henry S. Neely who is in the 1930 census with wife Jessie A., daughter Clara E., and son Spencer M. Neely?
