Photo taken from the Directory of the Members of the 13 Legislature of the State of Texas in, published in 1873. Williams' party label here is 'R,' and a distinction between moderate and radical republicanism is not present. The radical republican affilliates would be heavily phased out of office in the next legislature. Williams is also listed as colored in this publication (viz. (col.)), and is one of two mechanics listed amongst a large number of lawyers, farmers, and merchants. | Date: 1873 | Source: https://lrl.texas.gov/scanned/members/general/Directory_Members_13.pdfDownload Original File
