According to a will that I've placed in sources, the will of Arthur Williams names his wife Anne, and his four children, including his daughter Mary Carr. As there are no sources linking Mary Williams Carr to either Richard Williams or Sarah Copeland, I am removing them as her parents.

Williams-19924 and Williams-112967 appear to represent the same person because: Clear duplicate just completed merge of duplicate spouse Robert Carr. Now need to merge 2 Mary Williams. Thanks!

Fixed most ! Not sure if Thomas and Elias belong as children of this Mary Williams may need to disconnect previous DOB was 1685 and that for sure does not work with children born in the late 1730's and 40's. Adjusted DOB may need merged with the other wife of Robert Carr, Mary Williams-19924 after we work out whether the children belong ? I know Lydia was a daughter per his will record on Carr-2721.
