Do not confuse with
William Robinson, Baptist minister, also known as "Choctaw Bill," son of Wallace and Rebecca (Bishop) nor with any number of people who went by the name of Choctaw Bill.

William Walter Willims was the Pre BIA Agent and Munitions supplier for War of 1812. Contemporaries: Brig Gen Pushmataha, Capt Keder Keaton, SC Assemblyman Voting In Old Cheraw's District and Land Reserves for "Chief of Churrah" per Horry Co holdings of Moses Floyd ' Jackson Archives: Federal Passports as Indian Territory Agent; Bureau of Indian Affairs: Munitions Supplier from Waggamaw River Lewis Plantation in SC to Jackson during the War of 1812

There are some older genealogies for this line; but, this profile on back was done with primary sourcing and atDna / autosomic information. We never received proof of the Mary Ward wife and if it is available in a primary source, it can be added. Choctaw Bill was called that name as he was the passport agent for Indian Territory with the task of transferring the Old Cheraw Transfer Community who had petitioned for a more fair court in the Kingston Co Court Petition, see Horry Co Historical Society Website for the signatories of the first circuit preacher to the Florida Parishes, Rev. Isom Pounds and his brothers signing, the Skippers, and the Parkers, all "Chief Men of the Nottoway" for whom Capt. Keaton had voted to designate the Old Cheraw's District in 1767 in the SC Assembly and whose son, Benjamen Warren Keaton is buried not too far south from Choctaw Bill. At the same time coming into Ft Adams was Patriot Shadrach Collins (Goodwin) who originally hailed from the same Nottoway area as did the Pounds and Parkers. These families stayed together for generations as a community transferring in what should be termed as a diaspora of sorts as they kept having to do peaceful Regulator work, Westron Native Community at Hodge's Ferry service, then under Col Eaton at Fishing Creek and finally the "Chief of Churrah, Thomas Parker got the reserves on the LIttle PeeDee but due to the need to petition for a more fair court, the group came to St Helena Parish to await lands by federal passport.

William married Penelope Williams in 1784 in Bullock County, North Carolina, United States. Together they had the following children:;

2/25/19----When this profile has 3 sons and 5 daughters, it can be locked. Children: 3 sons and 5 daughters. Census shows William and Penelope were both 26 - 45 years of age, when they had two sons under ten years of age, one son who was 10-16 years of age, three daughters who were under ten years of age, and two daughters who were 10 - 16 years of age. William evidently died before 1830, leaving Penelope a widow, because he does not appear on the 1830 census for Washington Parish, Louisiana, but Penelope was enumerated. She must have died prior to 1840, as no further entries for her have been located.
William was the pre-BIA Indian Agent and issuer of passports into St. Tammany, at that time controlled by Spain for those Pan NA coming in (signing a promise not to evangelize) to await their bounty lands for a full century of native alliance fighting for the British then the American causes, once MS Territory opened up in 1803 by purchase and once West Spanish Florida opened up after the Spanish relinguished it to the revolting locals in 1810 for a 74 day Republic that was quickly annexed. This lead to the War of 1812 when the British burned down Detroit and then burned down Washington DC and by 1813, Gov. William C.C. Claiborne at Pensacola ousted the Spainish, the rest of Florida was cede din 1816 and the British lost the final battle at Chalmette La, to Jackson and his good friend, Brig Gen. Pushmataha, et. al. Choctaw Bill's move from what would become Dimery Settlement was noted on the Kingston Co. Court Petition as the signatories with their marks arguing for a more fair court. The SC new law that wanted the natives who had been fighting in the Rev War, not to own guns, was the reason for the Old Cheraw District Cheraw community transfer by JACKSON ARCHIVE PASSPORT, not through Creek Country per se as that was not needed; but, a community passport for a continuous community that eventually was enumerated on the Cooper Rolls of 1855; issued by this Wm. Williams, nick named "Choctaw Bill" and his Marion Raider brother in law, Capt. Benjamin Richardson. on Sept. 28, 1807 to come to the Louisiana Territory is an example of this agency for the "Old Cheraw / [she RAW]|" as they continued to self identify; even though, the Richardson wife was a Mizell Tithable Southern Tuscororanfamily origin, which was also the case with Choctaw Bill's Williams of the Old Cheraw. This particular family settled on the Bogalusa Creek in Washington Parish in 1810 along with Jacab Miller, David, John and Fanny Mizell, and James Thomas. Travelling from GA to LA with the family of Choctaw Bill was Penelope's sister-in-law - wife of her brother Amos - & her children, Penelope's sister Jane & her family, and Penelope's brother Benjamin Ricihardson, II & his family. This CORE community continued with the Bush area family just south in the Keaton / Glover community who had transfered along with the Pounds/Parkers who named their US Presidential land grants, Cheraw, MS; once they flipped the lands and purchased where they want to purchase.

Biography

They removed to the Coropeake, Va "Oseopeake, White Oak Swamp" lands in before 1680 when the lands were reserved there officially, being the last residence earlier of Wahunseneca, so it was a pan native land area west of Dismal Swamp. The next place they went was to the Williams Plantation (which picks up the Williams sur name for the Smith and Herrings amongst their community), on the West side bounded by Richard Washington of the Meherrin., 30 miles away from Ft Christanna, North side bounded by Cheroenhaka. His parents were Patriot Marion's Raider, William Walter Williams / Old Cheraw and Anne Margaretha (Lott) Williams. Later after 3 Wars, the Old Cheraw had one more war to help in, at 1812 where the full circle of the Shumate/Chalmette/Shoemaker family of natives had their Bertie Co, treks in reverse migration to exit the Colonialism that first brought them to the Isle of Wight in the first place.

She must have died prior to 1840, as no further entries for her have been located.

William "Choctaw Bill", Jr. & Penelope (Richardson) Williams were married c. 1785 in Screven Co., GA.

William was the pre-BIA Indian Agent and issuer of passports into St. Tammany for those Pan NA coming in to await their bounty lands once MS Territory opened up in 1803 by purchase and once West Spanish Florida opened up after the Spanish relinguished it to Gov. William C.C. Claiborne at Pensacola. Passport issued by Wm. Williams and his Marion Raider brother in law, Benjamin Richardson. on Sept. 28, 1807 to come to the Louisiana Territory is an example of this agency for Pan NA as the Richardson wife was a Mizell Tithable family origin, which was also the case with Choctaw Bill's Williams of the Old Cheraw. This particular family settled on the Bogalusa Creek in Washington Parish in 1810 along with Jacab Miller, David, John and Fanny Mizell, and James Thomas. Travelling from GA to LA with the family of Choctaw Bill was Penelope's sister-in-law - wife of her brother Amos - & her children, Penelope's sister Jane & her family, and Penelope's brother Benjamin Ricihardson, II & his family.

Etnicity: Epping Forrest 1762 Tithable - meaning Free Person of Color and that went back to the tithable papers of progenitors registered with the Northhampton Parish of the Lower Isle of Wight is proof of his Indian heritage from his Old Cheraw progenitors. The first named Williams (from England) owned at least two different headrights, (purchased tickets to the back country to cross into Indian areas):also, Spanish lands too, one on the bank of Bogue Chitto River, sold to Cornelius Cooper, and the other on the banks of Bogue Lusa Creek. Early Georgia census records indicate that William and Penelope had five children, one daughter and four sons; however, based on later Louisiana census records, William and Penelope had at least eleven children, five daughters and six sons, the last four children probably being born in Louisiana. William appeared on the 1820 census for Washington Parish, Louisiana. Possible alternate death year & location: 1828 in St. Tammany Parisih, LA, buried in Williams Cemetery, St. Tammany Parish, LA (per Find A Grave Memorial # 52400702. (cball@twc.com).
