(Boe) Williams, a Caison genealogist, William Caison had several sons: John, who moved to Brunswick Co; Hillery, who remained in Sampson Co; and Cannon who married Charity Hollingsworth and died in the Revolutionary War. !Spouse: Boe Williams suggests the William Caison may have married twice, since his family was closely connected to the Chesnutt family. (See the deed from Alexander and Sarah Chesnutt to William Caison.
