1	In the 1830 Montgomery County NC census, the following Williams families have males who could have been born in 1815: Archibald Williams (pg 37): 1 male 10-15, 30-40, 2 females <5, 1 female 5-10, 1 female 30-40. David Williams (pg 1): 1 male <5, 1 male 15-20, 1 male 40-50, 1 female <5, 1 female 5-10, 1 female 30-40. Thomas Williams (pg 31): 2 males 10-15, 1 male 15-20, 1 male 40-50, 1 female 5-10, 1 female 10-15, 1 female 15-20, 1 female 40-50. The family of Wiley Scarborough lives next door to Thomas Williams. If the parents of Maxton C. Williams' were already in Montgomery Co. by 1830, these are the most likely families; however, it is possible that the family moved into the area between 1830 and 1840. Ancestry.com does not appear to have census data for Montgomery Co in 1820. None of the Williams families seen in 1830 can be identified in the 1810 census.
