- The reason I believe this is "my" SP Williamson - just a few years later, he is married to Mary Matilda Duck and having kids. Mary Duck was enumerated with her family in Broomtown, Chattooga, Georgia in the 1850 Census, indicating some connection in this area.
stated value of real estate owned: $500. Also living in this household:
Martha Williamson, 58F, born in Georgia
Elizabeth Williamson, 34F, born in Georgia
Francis M. Williamson, 19M, laborer, born in Tennessee
S.P. Williamson was 32 years old, seems to have been a bachelor (or a widower). Martha, 26 years his senior, is likely his mother, perhaps widowed. Elizabeth, two years his senior, but not listed immediately after him in the household enumeration, is not likely his wife. More likely a sister or sister-in-law. If she is a widow with a 19 year old son, since her last name was given as Williamson, then she would be a sister-in-law. But this is all just a guess.
Have placed Francis M. Williamson as a brother, but he could have been a nephew, child of Elizabeth, who was perhaps his widowed sister-in-law or some such.
