E whakaatu ana tēnei whakapapa i ngā reanga e whā o te whānau Williams, he whānau Pākehā tōmua. Nā ōna tāngata i whakaputa te papakupu reo Māori tuatahi. Ko ngā putanga tuatahi e rua nā William Williams i whakaemi, ko te ingoa A dictionary of the Māori language. I muri i a ia nā tama nā William Leonard Williams i etita ngā putanga tuatoru, tuawhā, ā, nā tāna, nā Herbert William Williams i etita te putanga tuarima. Nāwai ka taka te pukapuka ki raro i ngā kanohi hōmiromiro a tētahi komiti, ko Ngata tōna tumuaki. I mate a Ngata i mua i tōna whakaputanga ki te ao.
