Information from the 1910 Blount County, Alabama Census states that both William Thornton Williams and his son, William Wesley Williams were coal miners. In a document from Monique Chamberlain, William Wesley Williams, Sr. filled out a form for the Social Security Administration in 1938. It stated that he had worked as a miner for the Lillybrook Coal Company in Lillybrook, West Virginia.
