Hi I am searching any Williams family from Cornwall, particularly the St Day, Chacewater, Kenwyn and Gwennap areas also Carharrack. I am particularly interested in descendents of Charles Hamly Williams and Eliza Underhill, also Richard Gerrans Williams b1852 and Ellen Clone. Richard was one of the few survivors on board SS Schiller which sunk off the Scilly Isles he became known as Schiller Williams after this.he was also a famous cornish wrestler. He had sons called Charles, John Michael, Richard Schiller and a daughter Edith Ellen b1891, there were also other children who I have not yet confirmed as being his and ellens.He died in 1892 in Mexico he was a miner His wife remarried. Any help in contacting descendent of the above or their siblings would be appreciated. Lorraine
