THE HENRY BULLETIN, Martinsville, Va., Fri., Aug. 13, 1920, p. 1, col. 1:
(edited)
Confederate Veteran and a man honored by the State in many ways was buried Sunday, having died Friday night at a Roanoke hospital. Reference is to Judge Samuel W. Williams of Wythe County, former attorney general of Virginia, ex-member of the State judiciary, candidate for Congress, elector-at-large on a former Democratic presidential ticket and a man beloved throughout the State. Judge Williams had been in declining health for some years.
He was 73 years of age, but until a few years ago had preserved a remarkably youthful appearance and unusual activity, with the result that he was never regarded as an old man.
He was born in Pittsylvania county in 1847.
He enlisted in a Cavalry Company in the Confederate Army when a mere boy, under command of Judge Berryman Green of Danville,Va. and served throughout the entire conflict.
At the end of the civil war Judge Williams returned home impoverished. He saved enough money farming to attend a session of the law school at the University of Virginia, later moving to the Southwest. It is said that he walked several hundred miles to reach Bland County, where he began the practice of law. Judge Samuel Walker Williams, senior member of the law firm of Williams and Hannah, died Aug. 6, at his home on Clarke Avenue, Roanoke, Va. He had been in ill health for the past four months and his death was not unexpected. He was born in Pittsylvania County, January 24, 1847.
He was a son of Robert Walker and Elizabeth Martin Williams, his mother being a daughter of Colonel Joseph Martin of Henry County, Va.
He was admitted to the bar when he was twenty years of age in 1867 and located at Bland Courthouse.
Judge Williams had made his home in Roanoke for the past three years.
He moved from Bland County to Wytheville where he made his home until the death of this first wife who was Miss Margaret Grayson of Bland County.
About three years ago he married Mrs. Lucy Walker, who was Miss Lucy Henry of Tazewell.
He is survived by his widow, two brothers, Judge Martin Williams of Pearisburg, and A. H. Williams of Wytheville, Va. One sister, Mrs. James H. Colley of Vance, Pittsylvania County; two daughters, Mrs. J. B. Dunn of Richmond, Va. and Miss Louise Williams of Wytheville, Va. and the following sons: Robert W. Williams of Wytheville; Samuel W. Williams Jr. of Bland, W. Carrington Williams of Wytheville, Dr. John Bell Williams, of Richmond, Brook L. Williams of Bland and J. Brice Williams of Wytheville, who is now in the United States Army.
===
He was Attorney General of Virginia from 1910-1914.
