Williamina Bond’s parents were Dr. Phineas Bond (1717 - 1773) and Wilhelmina Moore (1727 - 1809). Williamina’s baptismal name was also Wilhelmina and the two spellings were used interchangeably during her adult life. For example, the England and Wales Death Registration Index 1837-2007, used Williamina Cadwalader, while the England, Sussex, Parish Registers, 1538-1910, used Wilhelmina Cadwalladar,

Sometime around 1779, Williamina became the second wife of Revolutionary War hero John Cadwalader. They would have at least three children, Sarah Dingwell (b. 1778), Thomas (b. 1779), and Frances (b. 1781). Thomas would follow in his father’s footsteps and become a General in the Pennsylvania Militia. Frances would marry David Erskine, 2nd Baron Erskine (1777–1855), who was the British Ambassador to the United States from 1807 to 1809.

Following her husband’s death in 1786, Williamina moved to England to live with her daughter Frances. WIlliamina died in England and is buried in the same cemetery as her son-in-law David Erskine.
