A History of Kentucky Baptists, From 1769 to 1885, by J. H. Spencer, 1886, Reprinted by Church History and Archives, 1976, Lafayette, TN. Little River Association. Trigg County. DUDLEY WILLIAMS was among the younger ministers who entered into the constitution of the Red River Association, in 1807. He was at that time, a member, and most likely the pastor, of the Dry Creek church, in Trigg county. He had probably gathered the church, which was constituted, in 1805, and of which he continued a member, till 1831, when he moved his membership to Harmony church, in Caldwell county. He was in the organization of Little River Association, in 1813, and was a prominent actor in that body, about 25 years. When difficulties arose in some of the churches, about 1829, in regard to their members uniting with a temperance society, he and J. W. Mansfield defended the society, and the church members who united with it. This, with some other causes, produced a division of the Association, in 1833. Mr. Williams adhered to the missionary party, and warmly advocated the cause of christian benevolence. His name disappears from the associational records, about 1839.
