Albert G. Williams was the son of John Williams, Jr. and Unity Stanley. He was born in Henry County, Kentucky. He married Ellen Mitchell Owens on October 31, 1833 in Green County, Kentucky. He and Ellen moved to Clinton (now called Old Clinton or Northfork), Monroe County, Missouri in the fall of 1838. They brought with them two of Albert's younger siblings, William Winston Williams (1813-1891) and Evaline P. Williams (1823-1904). Albert was Evaline's guardian, and she lived with Albert and Ellen before her marriage in 1840. In Clinton, Albert farmed and ran a stagecoach inn called the Virginia House on the Centerville Trail. In the fall of 1854, Albert and Ellen moved to Weston, Platte County, Missouri. Besides farming, after the Civil War, Albert bought and ran The Half-Way House, a roadside tavern on the Weston-to-Platte City Turnpike.

Albert and Ellen had eleven children. Nine children survived Albert. A smart businessman, Albert was able to leave each child a farm of their own in his will.
