Image is of a different Gen. Williams!

That image, from Ford's "A Cycle of Adams Letters, 1861-1865", p156, there illustrates a letter written in 1862, mentioning Gen. (Bob) Williams. But the Gen. Williams subject of this Wikipedia entry, who at the time, was a Colonel — see the entry in Cullum's Register — is a different man. There is an image of our guy in his obituary in the AOG; in the print edition it faces p76.
