Elizabeth "Betsy" Norfleet Hunter Williamsis a daughter of Elisha Williamsand Sarah Josey Born: 5 Mar 1778 in Halifax County NC
When my great-grandfather's great-grandfather, Elisha Williams and his wife, Sarah Josey, decided to move from Franklin County NC to Nashville TN about 1804, their married daughter Betsy stayed behind in NC while the rest of the family made the move to Tennessee.
Betsy first married Joseph John Williams on 11 Feb 1797. I believe that they lived in the house below in Halifax County NC which was built for them near his father's brick house which he later inherited and which burned. The house is named White Rock Plantation. It is still owned by descendants of Betsy and is listed in the Register of National Historic Places. Picture taken in 2013
