Hi Jim

Congratulations on the new grandson!

I am still trying to figure out the extra Meek links you have just given me but I think I have the basics of the Samuel Williams / Abia Read connection.

We are talking about the same Albert Williams - William (1843) and William (1808) were my great and great-great grandfathers respectively. Albert and Laura (and also William - 1843) as well as Thomas and Annie Bertha Meek are buried in the Ruardean Hill Baptist Church churchyard. Albert and Laura used to live in the house directly opposite - now split into two properties. I will mail you copies of the gravestone photos separately.
