John Williams (possibly Mcwilliams before emigrating?) arrived in Muskingum, Ohio in 1805, and eventually moved to Elkhart County, Indiana, where he died of cholera in 1850 (within days of a son and a daughter also dying of cholera). A John Williams, a 22-year-old farmer from Strabane, Tyrone, Ireland, was on the ship The Belfast and arrived in either New Castle, New Jersey, or Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, in 1805. This might be John.
