David Williams (soldier) - Commemorations

Commemorations

Williams is honored on the monument erected at the site of the capture in Tarrytown, NY; the community has streets named for all three men. Three streets in nearby Elmsford, NY, are named for them as well, although Williams Street was virtually eliminated in the 1960s by construction of I-287; it remains only as a short service road between the highway and Route 9A. Ohio's Williams County is also named after David Williams (see also Van Wert and Paulding Counties, also in Ohio.)
