His father is supposed to be Sir Joseph Williamson - so far, no definate proof of this lineage. Perhaps a nephew or an illigitimate son? Sir Joseph's will does not mention John, although several lesser relatives receive inheritances - including a supposed illigitimate son. Perhaps John Price Williamson is descendant from Sir John Price. His first wife, Johan, was the daughter of a John Williamson. Has this been studied by your consortium?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2418363880270547155.post-50885476465652455022011-11-21T14:59:14.074-07:002011-11-21T14:59:14.074-07:00found another cuthbert from Va.
Cuthbert Williams...found another cuthbert from Va. <br />Cuthbert Williamson<br /> this came from geneology.com I just cut and coppied it probably nobody but it's such an odd name..............<br /><br /> Posted by: Thomas Franklin Coleman (ID *****4383) Date: October 21, 2010 at 06:03:36<br /> of 6521 <br /><br />A few year back I discovered a Cutberth Williamson in Henrico County and if I remember correctly he was part of a Coroner's inquest in 1664 and possibly a Coroner. He was born at least before 1643. Some years later there was a Cuthbert Coleman from Dinwiddie Co Va that had become the Coroner of that County and I had seen possible connections to this Cuthbert Williamson through another Cuthbert Williamson in Surry County. The Cuthbert Coleman below was not the Cuthbert that was the son of Thomas Williamson and Mrs Carter. If he were related he would have been the brother of Thomas. The will below puts both John and Cuthbert both in Va abt 1680. This makes me think that they are all sons of the ealier Cuthbert in Henrico County. I go back to a another yet unknown John Williamson born abt 1712 who was the son of one of these Williamson's who married Martha Tucker the daughter of Joseph Tucker and Martha Coleson<br /><br />An interesting connection is from the will of John Williamson:<br />Surry County; from the book Surry County, Virginia,<br />Wills, Estate Accounts, and Inventories, 1730, 1800<br />by Lyndon H. Harte III, pp4-5<br />Williamson, John of Southwark Parish, Surry Co., will<br />dated 30 Jan 1731, rec 17 May 1732. Cuthbert Williamson,and Robert Green, executors. Daughters: Elizabeth , wife of Hallom Sturdivant; Susanna Rottenbury, wife of John; Edith Williamson; Hannah, wife of Richard Fox. Son: Cuthbert (not 21). Granddaughter: Sarah. Brother:<br />Cuthbert. Witnesses: Judith Harper and Edward Farrington.<br /><br />Hallom Sturdivant is son of Mathew Sturdivant and grandson of Old John Sturdivant of William Byrd fame<br /><br /><br />Susan Coleman born Dec 13 1755 married Isham Reese born Aug 1748 migrated to Georgia.<br /><br />She named her sons Williamson C., born 1775, Isham, Cuthbert, Joseph, John C, Henry L and Jordan,,,daughters Susan and Sarah P Her son Cuthbert married Tabitha Clark of Orange County VA and named his sons James Williamson, Williamson Henry, Augustus Cuthbertm, Joseph Thomas, and Walton Pendleton.<br />It seems obvious to me that both that the Coleman's, Reese, Williamson are related here.<br /><br /><br />All of these names are identical and go back to Charles City County were a Cuthbert Williamson was the Coroner (1664). Incedentally many years later Cuthbert Coleman was the coroner of Dinwiddie County.

He still ...Forget it I read it wrong........ sorry! He still could have been a siblings or a cousins child, that happened allot back then. That might account for the DNA being different. Many people raised others kids at that time. Have you looked at cousins and siblings that may have died about the time they were together to see if they left a child behind.<br />LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2418363880270547155.post-971925008764103142011-11-21T14:13:37.816-07:002011-11-21T14:13:37.816-07:00Those dates don't add up if he was born 1830 a...Those dates don't add up if he was born 1830 and Sellina was born 1814 she would've been 15 or 16 giving birth to George and his father only a year or so older. I think he was maybe a sibling or cousins child they took in.<br />LisaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
