William Williams is my husband's ggg grandfather but since we have been researching we have realised that there were many William Williams in the Forest. We are still researching but this is what we have found to date:

William Williams b circ 1795 Llanrothal, Herefordshire (in some census Monmouthshire)
Baptised 8 Mar 1795 Newton, Herefordshire (IRG - assuming this is the correct one)
Married Phoebe Cooper, widow (nee Phoebe Hewlett) 8 March 1819, Newlands, Gloucestershire

Children
Sarah Williams baptised 20 February 1820, Newnham
Louisa Williams baptised 30 December 1821, Newnham
Mary Williams baptised 25 April 1824, Newnham
William Williams baptised 23 November 1828, Newnham

We know that the Williams family lived at Soudley as the census from 1841 to 1871 indicates. My husband is descended from Louisa who married Samuel Hewlett of the White Horse, Soudley. We do not know what became of Louisa's brother William and I have not yet been able to find any information about him. He may be the one you are looking for. I would be grateful for further information about our Williams family. This may help.
