Ancestors of William (Billy) Williams of Tennessee

Katala Williams and daughter Anitra Williams Fay's family is from Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee, which makes it very interesting, since we also have the families of Thomas Williams, Benjamin Williams and Richmond Williams living in other areas of Tennessee. So far, we have been unable to find the missing link(s) to connect these Tennessee families, even though DNA shows them to be closely related.
