There does not appear to be any reason to think that Frances Williamson was first married to Robert Bird or John Bryant. I find no record/connection, in The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex Co., VA.

Frances was born in 1682, as WILLIAMSON and married in 1704, as WILLIAMSON.

My research shows the following:

21 Dec 1682, Middlesex Co., VA: ffrances the Daughter of Richard and Katherine Williamson was borne the 21th of Decemb 1682.
(The Parish Register of Christ Church, Middlesex County, Va., from 1653-1801, National Society of the Colonial Dames of America in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Rev. Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., 1988, p 19)

16 Feb 1704, Middlesex Co., VA: John Alding & ffrances Williamson ye 16th ffebruary 1704. (ibid, p 79)

01 Apr 1727, Middlesex Co., VA: John Alding dyed April ye I. & was buried April ye 3. 1727. (ibid, p 184)

I agree, the Frances married to Bird and Bryant are like the same person, BUT not Frances Williamson that married John Alden.

Further searching I found John Bryant and Frances having a child Williamson in 1730 in Christ Church Parish Register

"Williamson Son of John & Frances Bryant born April ye 21. baptized May ye 3. 1730."

Williamson Bryant died in 1733

"Williamson Bryant dyed September ye 9. 1733."

John Bryant died 1733

"John Bryant dyed March ye 24. 1733. buried March ye 26 1734."
