Eliezer Williams

Eliezer Williams (baptised 4 October 1754 – 20 January 1820) was a Welsh clergyman and genealogist, who served the Earl of Galloway as a family tutor and genealogical researcher.

He was educated at Carmarthen grammar school and Jesus College, Oxford (matriculated 1775, BA 1778, MA 1781).

He also assisted with research into the Galloway ancestry, helping to establish the Scottish Earl's claim to the English peerage.

In 1809, while serving in Chadwell, he gave evidence in the case of White v Driver in which Elizabeth Manning's will was disputed on the grounds of insanity.

After his death, his son from his second marriage published English works, which included essays on various Welsh and Celtic topics.
