Richard Williams (alias Cromwell)
Sir Richard Williams, alias Cromwell (born by 1502 – 1544) was a Welsh soldier and a courtier in the court of Henry VIII. He was a maternal nephew of Thomas Cromwell, and profited from the Dissolution of the Monasteries in which he took an active part. He was a great-grandfather of Oliver Cromwell.
==Early life==
Richard Williams was born by 1502 in the parish of Llanishen, Glamorganshire.〔 cites: Leland's Itinerary, vide letter B in the proofs and illustrations.〕 He was eldest son and heir to Morgan Williams, an aspiring Welsh lawyer who moved from Glamorgan to Putney where he initially pursued his business of innkeeper and brewer. Williams' good fortune was to marry Katherine, the elder sister of Thomas Cromwell long before the commencement of latter's illustrious career as Henry VIII's great minister. In later life, Williams and his son would benefit financially from this relationship, receiving substantial landholdings confiscated from the church.
