Williams Family Cemetery - H.B. Williams bought Refugio town tract Lot 95
that had 100 acres from his brother Henderson Williams in the 1850's.
His wife Elizabeth Williams is buried there - She died just before the Civil War started
His son Wayman (it is a family name not Raymond) Williams was buried there too. He died after the Civil War. H.B. Williams is buried in south Bexar county, Texas.
