Tom Williams House is a historic home located near Williams, Colleton County, South Carolina. The house dates to the 19th century, and is a one-story, clapboard dogtrot style house on brick piers and with a spraddle roof. It features a front porch supported by six tapered, hand-hewn columns. The house was owned by and housed the family of Tom Williams, a much respected middle class farmer who donated land for the town that was named in his honor. In 1914, it was used as a tenant house for the Warren and Griffin Lumber Company.[2][3]

It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1]
