Hi Debra! My grandmother showed me Emma's grave in Mustard Cemetery. The information I am sharing was passed down from my grandmother, E. Pauline Williams Bush (1903-1996)and is not documented.It is very confusing family!She told me that Emma, her grandmother's sister( Elizabeth) had four children and was unmarried. Elizabeth married Wesley (or David) Williams and had my great-grandfather, Jefferson Monroe Williams. He married Sarah Elizabeth Foster.Other children were Eliza Ellen m. Joseph V. Mustard. Elizabeth and David are also buried in Mustard Cemetery. Elizabeth died possibly in childbirth with Lafeyette. David then married Emma and Elizabeth's sister, Barbara.David and Barbara had Anna and Wesley W. Two other children were David. who married Mandy Wallace and Samuel.I think they are Barbara and David's children but could be Elizabeth's. Then David (or Wesley) died and Barbara marrried Joseph Smalley. Joe had a son by a previous marriage named James. Barbara and Joseph had two children: Cora and Isaac. Anna Williams married her step-brother, James Smalley. I believe that Emma had one other sister named Nancy who had at least one daughter, Irene. Their parents were William Alexander and Phebe Shay. I believe I found some of this info.in the 1870 Scioto Co., Brush Creek census. William Alexander was in the navy during the Civil War. My grandmother was born in Rarden and her siblings were Lottie Williams m. Tassle Gardner; Faye Williams m. Paul Schmitter; and Arther Williams. William Alexander's parents were John Allexander B.@ 1791 in Beaver,PA. and Barbara Thomson daughter of William Thomson b. June 15, 1750 in Renfrew, Scotland and Fanny Lindsay. William Thomson's parents were Alexander Thomson b.1722 in Scotland and Elizabeth Edmonstone b. 1728 in Scotland;Elizabeth's parents were William Edmonstone and Agnes Haidley. I hope this information helps! Susan
