Walter Bernard Williams 1921

born Jan 3, 1890 in Columbia SC

 

Walter Williams applied for a passport in March of 1921. He listed his profession as a clerk and his destination as England and France for the purpose of study and travel. There is a strong likelihood that he was the Walter Williams who joined the New York Syncopated Orchestra as a singer in 1921 in London and who was killed when the orchestra's ship sank in the Irish Sea in October of that year.
