Following "Two Emma Priest" thread Emma married Henry Williams who has father noted as Henry Williams Chain Maker on marriage record
I think his father was not Henry but Bramwell Williams
This is Henry and Emma :-

See my post on Emma Priest thread
Re: Williams family of Rowley Regis
Thanks Kdwoodie
Re: Williams family of Rowley Regis
I have not connected Henry Williams who married Emma Priest to Bramwell Williams who married Mary Grove but I think there is enough evidence from Census records to connect

I agree that Henry is the son of Bramwell and Mary
