Nice easy name to find right... 
William WILLIAMS was my 3xG grandfather, according to censuses he was born c1817 in Little Rollright, Oxfordshire.
He married Hannah WYATT Q3 1855 Shipston on Stour, Worcestershire.
Hannah was born c1824 in Todenham, Gloucestershire.
I have him on the 1861/71/81 censuses living at Churchill Mill, Churchill, Oxfordshire and 1891/1901 censuses living at The Grange, Churchill, Oxfordshire - son Edward has taken over the Mill, but by 1901 he is living with his father (now an invalid) at The Grange.
There isn't an entry for "Churchill Mill" in 1901, but there is for "Mill House" (occupied by a "Schoolmaster (in institution)" and his family), so it looks as though it was no longer a functioning mill. I wonder what happened to it? Maybe Edward wasn't as good a business man as his father?
They had Edward 1857; Charles 1858; both Todenham, Gloucestershire. Lucy 1860; Arthur 1861; Anne 1863; Emma 1865; Louisa 1867 all born Fritwell, Oxfordshire.
Can anyone help find William WILLIAMS before 1855, and maybe even find his parents.
