John was born in 1891. He was likely the son of Emma Williams.
John is the grandson of Humphrey Williams. He is assumed to be the son of Emma, because she is Humphrey's only known child. But so far, I have not been able to find sources for Humphrey for earlier than 1880. If he had an older child who was out of the house by 1880, John might be the son of that unknown child, instead.
