Mary Williams’ Providence: A Walking Tour with Dr. Charlotte Carrington-Farmer

Roger Williams is the most written-about 17th-century colonist. Mary, however, was the head of the Williams household. Throughout almost half a century of marriage, Mary alone made many of the decisions for her family and the wider community, as her husband traveled far and wide.
