Note: He is first heard about in Westerly. Rhode Island in 1671, when there was a round up of Westerly townsmen to ascertain their loyalty to the king. (He could not be found.) Thus, he was at least 21 in 1671 and therefore born at least by 1650. He was a transient resident of Edgartown, Martha's Vineyard, according to Bangs' Annals of Edgartown, appearing there as a witness in 1679, 1684 and 1687. He may have been a mariner; there is a mention of him in the Diary of Thomas Monor, saying that Augustine is coming by in his boat to take some people to New Haven.

1680 – Thomas Miner Diary account of Augustine Williams (I couldn’t find what happened on 16 June)

The earliest mention found of an Augustine Williams in CT is in THE HISTORY OF MIDDLESEX COUNTY 1635-1885; J.H.BEERS & Co., 26 Vesey Street,NY, 1884, pp 417-434 by Hon. William H. Buell (transcribed by Janece Streig, found at Rootsweb.com)

In describing an early boundary conflict between the towns of Killingworth and neigboring Saybrook which was settled by Killingworth voting on 16 Mar 1687 to pay Saybrook for clear title. “it appears from page 138, vol I, that the following persons ‘Did Disburse money for Saybrook purchase …’Augustine Williams 0…5’ ” (Pounds, shillings, pence)

His marriage to Hannah Norton in 1678-80, prob. in Martha’s Vineyard (Augustine is noted as being of Stonington, New London, CT) is found in The History of Martha’s Vineyard by Dr. Charles Banks, Vol. 3 Family Genealogies, pp 341-382 “The Norton Family of Martha’s Vineyard” and New England Marriages Prior to 1700 by Clarence Almon Torrey, 1987 Baltimore, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc.

The history of Martha’s Vineyard, Dukes County, Massachusetts

Augustine Williams was a transient resident of Martha’s Vineyard. He is first found here in 1679, as a witness, and again in 1684 and 1687 in the same connection. The town records have an entry relating to him in 1681, and it may be inferred that he was a constant resident here between the earlier and later dates. Of his antecedents nothing is definitely known, but he was probably a resident of Stonington, Conn., (1663), and possibly a mariner. He married Hannah Norton, and had Thomas [1678], Hannah, 1680, Daniel, 1683, Bethiah, 1686, and Matthew, 1688, all recorded at Killingworth, Conn., whither he removed about the last named date. He died shortly after this, as in 1692 his widow Hannah was empowered by the General Court to sell certain property, according to a verbal bargain made by her deceased husband. She was here on Aug. 17, 1692, as witness to a deed, probably on a visit. She married a second time, before 1699, elder John Brown of Killingworth.’^
