Thank you, Kathy,

George Williams 35 mariner b. Fayal, W.I. (no parents listed) and Hannah
Higgins 25 married in Wellfleet MA Nov. 10, 1854 by George Denham,
Cleryman.  Actual record is listed on www.familysearch.org

This one will be difficult as no parents are listed on marriage record.  I
would try and see if you can get a copy of the form they filled out to get
the marriage license and hope it might have this info.  What info do you
have that he died ca 1857?

I went to the New Bedford Whalers List and there are 62 records for the name
George Williams listed around the 1840/50 timeframe
