MARGARET [Williams]

(1721 - Bef 1777)



Although many websites give her name as "Evans" I've found no proof. In fact a quoted marriage date for William Williams to Margaret Evans is a year after the birth of Priscilla. One website on the various Williams families of Philadelphia states:
He probably married MARGARET MCGREW June 16, 1740 at Christ Church, Philadelphia PA. She was born about 1721 in Philadelphia Co., PA, and died 1795 in Loudoun Co., VA.

FindAGrave Memorial # 92456469 suggests parents were Peter Evans and Mary Moore of Philadelphia - no proof.

Margaret remarried after the death of William Williams to Anthony Chamness. She was not named in his will of 1777, so apparently had died sometime prior.
