Looking for any information on Henry Williams, born 10 march 1829, He purchased a farm: NE 1/4 Sec. 32, Twp 18, Range 17 on 1 Sept. 1887. He passed away 22 Aug. 1896. Some time between 1870 and 1880 he adopted a boy Alvin P. Franklin. In Dec. 1891 a Wagon party left the farm in Osage County to go to Oklahoma Territory. Those included in the wagon party was Alvin P. Franklin, my Grand Mother Katie (Efinger) Williams, my father Henry Williams at the age of about 8 years of age. Already in the Territory was my Grand Father Charles R. Williams and Alvin P. Franklin's father. Whom evidently farmed in Osage County prior. Henry Williams is buried in the Agricola Cemetery, on Old Hiway 50 east of Agricola. His farm was about 3 mile North of the Cemetery. Does anyone have any information on either Franklin family and where they farmed or on Henry Williams. Thank you.
