in the Rockfish Townfish in 1920, listed on the Census as a Widow. His occupation was listed as Laborer

listed in his household.
His first wife whom I recall was referred to as Nettie is believed to be the Meddie G. Williams, 30 Aug
1892 - 5 Sep 1918, w/o Norman G. Williams, listed in the Big Rockfish Presbyterian Cemetery in Cumberland
County, NC.
Norman C. Williams later married Minnie B. (Biggs) SIMMONS, age 38, Widow, b. NC, occupation Seamstress,
who was listed on the 1920 Census in Rockfish Township. Her sister, Katie Biggs, age 37, Single, b. NC,

Any information regarding any of these individuals would be greatly appreciated. And if anyone happens to
go to the Big Rockfish Cemetery and could check to see if the tombstone transcribed as Meddie G. Williams
w/o Norman G. Williams is actually Nettie G? Williams w/o Norman C. Williams, I would love to hear from you.
