It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Exc son, Daniel Williams, witness John Johnston, James Garner, and Elisha Williams. Name of his plantation was "LITTLETOWN" as proved by the will of Sarah Williams his widow and a deed by their grandson, Richard Williams.

It is not known how many daughters he had. William Williams’ sons, John and Steven Williams sold 170 acres to their uncle, William’s brother, Richard Williams. This is likely the same 175 acres mentioned above in William’s will where “Littell town is located. Afterward, it appears that John, son of William, moved to Bertie County NC where he lived until he died in 1737. 22 Aug 1719: John Williams and his brother Stephen Williams “of Albemarle County, North Carolina” sold to their uncle Richard Williams of Isle of Wight 170 acres adjacent his property in the Nottoway Basin—part of a patent for 600 acres granted to William Williams on 28 October 1702(Great Book, Vol. II, p. 275).

    http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~paday/dobbers/carr_robert4&5.html This is interesting. A family history written in 1840 by the great grandson of Joshua Williams' sister Mary Carr. It says that Mary b around 1715 in Nansemond Co VA, which is a much more realistic timeframe for the children of Richard Williams to be born than some posters claim. (They have Richard's born much earlier based on who knows what). I suspect Joshua's birth should be placed around this same general time. Below is from the writing of Jonas Johnston Carr 1805 - 1843 sent by Mrs. Leila Carr. " As I am desirous of perpetuating a family record for my posterity and having but limited means for a correct information, I have thought it advisable to give such information in a chronological maner as I am convinced may be true with a view that my posterity will keep up the family record as it has often been my lot to be at a great loss in the genealogy of my ancestors, a record every family should cherish, and keep alive if their forebears have done nothing discreditable and I am proud in saying mine so far as my knowledge extends have not; but who have persued a course perfectly consistent to christianity and the rights of man, a duty I enjoin on my descendants. Signed: Jonas Johnston Carr 3 July 1840" He continues with his family history: "Robert Carr was born in the County of Nancymond VA about the year 1710. Mary Williams the wife of Robert Carr bed in Nancymond about the year 1715. Robert Carr and Mary Williams were married in the County of Nancymond about the year 1735. From that marriage sprang a numerous offspring which I am unable to give a full and correct account---there were eight children born Joshua, Elizabeth, Mary, Martha, Lydia, Titus - my grandfather, Matthew & Robert Titus Carr son of Robert Carr was born 30th of October 1743 in the County of Nancymond VA. Winefred Stephens b in Souhampton or Nancymond VA about the year 1752 Titus Carr & Winafred Stephens was maried near Boons Bridge in the County of South hampton in VA about the year 1770. They had eight children by the marriage viz Charles, Elias my father, Nancy, Sarah, Robert, Winafred, Precilla, Titus From which has sprang a numerous posterity all the brothers & sisters were known to me and had children. My father maried Mrs. Hines the widow of Jesse Hines and daughter of Col. Jonas Johnston and Esther Maun his wife - and a further family record is registered in the large family Bible given to me by my mother within her last Will and Testament to which this is attached. signed) J J Carr 3rd of July 1840 "

Joshua Williams. Proved October 1761 court, Sarah Williams widow. Halifax County Will Book Volume 1, 1758-1774. Notice the name of the slave Martha inherited: Hager. In 1768 Martha wife of John Joyner receives a slave named Hagar. At that time in NC, Martha’s property would have transferred to her husband, and it looks like here he is making sure she gets to keep her father’s bequest. (8). 1753.
