Note: It is now believed that wife Charity and he first emmigrated to Illinois in 1835 and then at some point after daughter Sarah's birth in Illinois in 1838 to Iowa and then back to Galena in 1843. This conclusion is from Barnabus's obituary which states that Barnabus was born in Iowa in 1842 and then moved with his parents to Galena when he was one year old.

Notes:

David Williams and the capture of Andre: a paper read before the Tarrytown Historical Society, Marcius Denison Raymond, Tarrytown Argus, 1902, 26 pages:

"Aert Williams certainly had a sister Rachel, who married Martinus Van Wart, the father of Isaac Van Wart, one of the Captors, who was an own cousin to David Williams. Then David Williams had a sister Sarah who married David Mead, and a sister Catharine who married Andrew Green, a son Moses, baptised in 1769, for whom Moses Harris and Sarah Williams were sponsors. Also sisters Rachel and Maritie, and a brother John, who were unmarried. We will only add the genealogical fact that Femmetie (Phebe) Waldron, the mother of David Williams, was the daughter of Jan Waldron and Margarictie Rouw his wife, and baptised at the old Dutch Church, Nov. 20, 1736, Nicklaes Rouw and Annatie Rouw being sponsors. Margarietie Rouw (Rowe) was a member of the old Dutch Church date of 1734."

The South Salem (NY) Church index indicates an Andrew Green marriage;
m. "Aug 14, 1780 Andrew Green & Sarah Griffin" this will need to be resolved. Could it be the same or another Andrew Green?

a paper read before the Tarrytown Historical Society , Marcius Denison Raymond,
Tarrytown Argus, 1903

For and in consideration of the services David Williams hath rendered his country in apprehending and securing the British Deputy Adjutant General, Major Andre, who was returning to New York after having in the character of a Spy concerted measures with the infamous Benedict Arnold, then commanding the posts in the Highlands, for betraying the said posts into the hands of the enemy; and for his virtue in refusing a large sum of money offered by the said Major Andre as a bribe to permit him to escape; and for and in consideration of a further sum named, the said Commissioners granted and sold unto him, a certain tract of land late in the possession of Edmund Ward in the town of Eastchester, being altogether 252 J acres, for which the total price was £1,360, 12s., 6p., less the £500 awarded him by the Government. The date of this conveyance was June 16, 1783, but he re-conveyed a portion of the same to Stephen Ward the same year and he may never have lived there, or only for a short time. His purchase of a part of the farm of his father-inlaw, Joseph Benedict, of Lower Salem, 140 acres, for which he paid £640, occurred June 23, 1789; at least he did not take title till that date. In this connection it should be stated, on the authority of Simm's Frontiersmen of New York, to which we are indebted for other data, that David Williams' father, Aert Williams, removed early in the war from near Tarrytown to Cross River, Lower Salem, and lived on lands belonging to Joseph Benedict, whose daughter, his son David, afterwards married. And there he, Aert Williams, continued to reside until his decease.
