John R. Williams

John R. Williams (May 4, 1782 – October 20, 1854) was an American soldier, merchant, and politician who is most well known for serving as the first mayor of Detroit, Michigan. In total, he served as Detroit's mayor for five other terms. He also was a brigadier general in the United States Army during the Black Hawk War.
==Early life==
Born in Detroit, he was baptized as John Williams (he later adopted the ‘R’ in his name to distinguish himself from another John Williams who was living in Detroit at the time). Raised in his mother's French Canadian community, he spoke and wrote fluently in both French and English. Williams married Mary Mott in 1804, and the couple had ten children together.〔 One of them, Thomas Williams, would later be killed in action as a Union general during the American Civil War.
Williams served in the Territorial Militia from 1796 to 1799 at Fort Marsac in Tennessee.〔 Upon leaving the army, he returned to Detroit and joined his uncle, Joseph Campau, in his successful mercantile business.〔 During the War of 1812, Williams again served in the militia, this time as the captain of an artillery company.〔
