Rev. William M. Williams
1805-1860
Rev. Williams was born in Sampson county, North Carolina in 1805, the son of John Holly Williams,
whose ancestors came into North Carolina in the early 1700's.His mothers' name is thought to be Rhoda Strickland. His family migrated to Lawrence County , Mississippi arriving there about 1813, after having stopped for a year to make a crop in Alabama. This was not considered out of the ordinary, for those migrating to another region. He was a member of the Pearl River association and is shown in the Pearl River Minutes published in 1860. He was often given the honor of being the main speaker at the conventions and was scheduled to speak on September 8th, 1860, when he died ,it appears suddenly. The meeting that year was at Silver Creek. His address at that time was Mount Carmel ,Mississipi. He served Harmony Church in Covington County from the organization of that church in 1840, having only missed an association meeting once during that time until 1860. Rev. Williams was referred to as being one of the strong men in the Pearl River Association. In1845-1849 he is listed as the pastor of Harmony church located in Covington County at Mt.Carmel. In 1848, this church is shown as being in Lawrence county, possibly a shift in county boundaries. Churches were smaller then, and often far apart, and we find him serving churches that numbered 105 in membership, which was the largest church.
From the History of Mississippi Baptists, page 151 we read,"In 1860 the death of William Williams was reported. The Association met that year at Silver Creek, Lawrence County, and William Williams was the appointee to preach the introductory sermon. He was "declared to have been a useful, and faithful preacher, and a man of wisdom in council. It is to be lamented that the Association failed to give a full obituary notice of this worthy man. His post office was at Mount Carmel. He represented Harmony Church, in Covington county, from the organization of that church in 1840, missing the association meetings only once in that span of years., before the year of his fatal illness. He held many positions of trust in the association, to the satisfaction of his co-laborers. One cannot but be impressed with the high form of manliness exhibited by him, and the power of grace he possessed." He also served the Strong River church in Simpson county. His family consisted of his wife Rebecca (Herrel?) born in 1811 in Kentucky; birth dates: Rhoda Ann 1832, Dicy Ann 1834; Sarah Ann 1838;Martha Ann 1841;William H. 1846;John Isaac 1847; Mary Amanda 1849; and Frank 1852. All of the children were born in Mississippi.

John Myers Cemetery
Location: Lawrence County, Mississippi, east of New Hebron, on Lonas Buckleys place, near old Hebron Church at Choctaw Boundary Line, South. Sec.10,T.9, R. 19.
The following interesting information was obtained from an article on the old John Myers cemetery, written by Gerald Lord, which was in the August -1967 issue of the Clarion Ledger( a newspaper published in Jackson, Mississippi.)
"Buried in a deep, dark, secluded pine thicket in the rolling cattle country of south Mississippi, is an old family cemetery. Its weather worn tombstones, mute reminders of days long forgotten, are scarcely discernible in the underbrush.Buried there, too, is the storyof the glorious past of a big plantation hewed out of an unsettled wilderness by a well-to-do planter and his slave colony. Hannah Myers (born 1740) was the mother of John Myers, Sr. ( born 1775), who was one of two original settlers in what is now the new Hebron area, near the Jeff Davis-Lawrence County Line."
Three Myers brothers came in and settled the place right after it was opened up. One of the brothers died soon afterwards, and another one left, so that left only John Myers, Sr. The site of the Myers settlement was right in the heart of the Choctaw Indian Territory. The tribe must have been the Myers earliest neighbors, since the last Indian didnt leave until a century after the first white settlers moved in. There is supposedly an old Indian mound in the vicinity, but most of what is known about it is legendary. The great grandfather of Albert Slater (age 88 in 1967), now living in the area, was Thomas Bill Slater, the other original settler with John Myers, Sr. He helped John Myers build the old Hebron Church back in 1822. "
This was published in one of the Mississippi Genealogical Society, set of books usually issued annually for a number of years-no other information is available.It is thought to be one of the first volumes published.

It is built of heart pine,and has 80 feet long sills, with large wooden pegs and square nails, used in the construction of the pews.These epitaphs were copied from those headstones there.
1. Gone to be an angel !
2. Weep not father and mother for me, For I am waiting in heaven for thee.
3. We have parted,but not forever, But we have said our last farewell, Til we meet you dearest Luke, Where there is no farewell.
4. Sleep on dear father, And take thy rest, God called you home. He thought it best.
5. Remember friend,as you pass by, As you are now, so once was I, As I am now, so you will be, Prepare for death, and follow me.
6. Death is but a path That must be trod, If man is ever to pass to God.
7. He was faithful and true to his trust.

Early Settler in South Carolina
JOHN PETER SANDEL IMMIGRANT TO ORANGEBURG DISTRICT SC 1752.
John Peter Sandel was born c 1723;he was in the Charleston, South Carolina harbor December 11, 1752. The ship had sailed from Rotterdam,with a stop in Cowes,England prior to sailing for America. John Peter Sandel had his wife Magdalena with him and one child. This family settled in what was theOrangeburg District, of South Carolina; this was a large area, and not Orangeburg County, as it exists today. John Peter Sandel died c 1783; his burial place or that of his family is not known; however, many families buried their loved ones on their plantations, or near their homes. We are fortunate in that this family were members of Rev. John Gissendanner's church in early Orangeburg, and records have survived and are produced in The History of Orangeburg County, South Carolina, by A.S. Salley. This volume is in many libraries and even available for sale in many states today. In this book, we are able to ascertain their children. Children born to this couple were: John Peter II born in 1752; George Henry born in 1755;Elizabeth born in 1758; Catharina Margaret born 1759; these four are in the book named above and were christened by Rev. John Gissendanner. The next four children Anna Maria born 1763; Maria Elizabeth born 1766; Regina born 1768 and Maria Magdalene born 1770; were all christened at St. John's Lutheran Church in Charleston,South Carolina and records of these christenings were found in microfilm held by the Church of Latter Day Saints in Utah. The couple ,John Peter Sandel and his wife Magdalene, were recipients of fifty acres of land, when they arrived in South Carolina, but eventually had about 10,000 acres of land awarded to them in grants. During the American Revolution ,they were able to give large amounts of forage for the troops, which later they were paid for, by the English government. England was in control of this area for most of their lives there. Though membership has been established in the Daughters of the American Revolution, the two sons: John Peter II and George Henry Sandel were Loyalists and served in this capacity during the Revolution. Loyalists of course were those persons, who continued to have allegiance to England. Some of the finer more honorable and distinguished persons did bear the name of Loyalists. Since they lost in the war, many had their land confiscated. John Peter II was killed during the War and money was paid his widow Susan, afterwards. George Henry Sandel left South Carolina and moved to Pike County, Mississippi, which was at that time, still in Amite County-the mother of many southeastern counties of Mississippi. George Henry Sandel was married to Catherine Nobles and their daughter Elizabeth married John Felder, son of Peter Felder, a Revolutionary Soldier; John Felder distinguished himself, as a very devout and consecrated man, and the John Felder Methodist Campground and Camp meeting held annually at Summit, Mississippi is still active and named in his honor References: Loyalists in the Southern Campaign of the Revolutionary War by Murtie June Clark ,volume 1,Genealogical Publishing Co., Baltimore, c 1981.pp. 202,209 The History of Orangeburg County, South Carolina by A.S.Salley,April 1,1898. privatelypublished.Reprintsavailable.pp151,156,161,179,187, 188.
