"The American Genealogist" TAG 74:292-298, 1999 - Elizabeth, wife of Richard Cutter - Presents evidence that age of wife of Richard Cutter prevents her from being the daughter of Robert Williams.
What evidence points to the first wife of Robert being the daughter of John Stahlam?
Elizabeth Williams = Richard Cutter? - I note that Gary Boyd Roberts
lists Elizabeth, daughter of Robert, with a question mark beside her name
when showing her as the spouse of Richard Cutter in various kinships they
are in. Torrey also shows a question mark beside her name. That marriage
appears not to be proven.
See the Williams Connection to an interesting network of relationships involving Napoleon, Daniel Webster, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, General Armistead - Confederate General killed at Gettysburg, and the wife of President Franklin Pierce.

Here is a fairly complete descendant
register of Robert Williams. I think it is from the same gedcom that
produced the Scokin database above.
