DR. U. V. WILLIAMS, born in Franklin County November 7, 1833, is the third
son of David and Elizabeth (Ron) Williams.  David Williams was born in
Orange County, Va., in 1794, immigrated to Kentucky in 1816, and settled
in Franklin County; was a blacksmith and machinist by trade and also
farmed.  The Doctor's grandfather, Jesse, was born in Virginia; immigrated
to Kentucky in quite an early day, and settled in Richmond.  He, too, was
a blacksmith by trade.  His father, David, was also a blacksmith, and both
David and Jesse died from the effects of driving a horseshoe nail into the
femoral artery while shoeing a horse.  Dr. U. V. Williams was educated at
Franklin County (Ky.) Military College; commenced to read medicine in 1851,
and also commenced to teach school the same year, and taught in Franklin
and Owen Counties until 1853.  He attended a course of medical lectures at
the Ohio Medical College, Cincinnati, in the winter of 1853-54, and
attended another full course in the winter of 1854-55 at the same college
and graduated.  He then returned to Kentucky, and located in Anderson
County, practicing until 1857; then moved to St. Charles County, Mo, and
practiced till [sic] 1858; then went to Philadelphia, Penn., and attended
a course of lectures at Jefferson Medical College in the winter of 1858-59,
and graduated in 1859.  David Williams died about this time, and the
Doctor returned to Franklin County to look after the estate, and has been
actively engaged in practicing in Franklin County from 1862 up to the
present.  He is one of the leading physicians in the county, owns a nice
house and lot in the city of Frankfort, and is surrounded by plenty. May
15, 1862, he married Clemency Wilcox, a descendant of Daniel Boone.  Her
great-grandmother was Daniel Boone's sister.  Clemency Wilcox is the
daughter of Jesse and Elizabeth (Russell) Wilcox.  Elizabeth Wilcox is a
sister to Capt. John W. Russell.  Four children have blessed the Doctor's
union--three living: Pattie and Minnie I., members of the Presbyterian
Church, and John W. R., a member of the Baptist Church.  The Doctor is a
Baptist and his wife a Presbyterian.
