Lorenzo m. in 1876 to Mary Jane Reynolds. They had 5 children: Asa Ealem, Notie Cleo, Lester Lorenzo, Nora B., and Clinton Elwood.

Courthouse and Undertaker's records have been located in Coles Co, IL listing him by his middle name "Dow", but incorrectly written "Dial".
Lorenzo Dow was not a name having appeared previously in the Williams family, but, in as much as the family was very religious, they were quite possibly influenced by the knowledge of a well respected traveling minister by the name of Lorenzo Dow.
The spelling or mis-pronounciation "Dial" was furnished by his own granddaughters, specifically in the death records of Dow's son, Asa Ealem Williams, and his daughter, Notie Cleo (Williams) Sims, who are buried in the Hurricane Cemetery, Hutton Twp, Coles Co, IL, along with numerous additional members of the Sims family.
The Sims family settled near Diona, in Coles Co, shortly after moving to Coles Co directly from Highland Co, VA in 1887.

Lorenzo is my g gf, and Notie is my gm.
