John Williams (1801 - 1859) naturalist and physician was born in Llansanffraid, in the Conwy valley, north Wales. He was educated at Liverpool and apprenticed to his elder brother William, a physician and apothecary at Abergele. He later studied at the Royal College of Surgeons in Dublin and practiced as a physician in Wales at Corwen and Wrexham. He moved to California in 1849 during the gold rush, where he intended to combine working as a physician with gold prospecting, but he was robbed and suffered ill health and returned to Wrexham in 1853. He is the author of Faunula Grustensis: being an outline of the natural contents of the parish of Llanrwst (1830).

John Williams (1817-1907), of Lodwig villa, Bangor, north Wales, was a well-known character locally, especially within the Wesleyan Circuit. He was born in Beaumaris, Anglesey in 1817. At the age of 16 he went to work for his brother in law, William Rowlands, a Bangor coachbuilder. At that time he attended Horeb chapel, the only Welsh Wesleyan chapel in Bangor. Throughout his life he was a loyal member of the Wesleyan Circuit in Bangor and contributed generously to the ministry at St Paul's Wesleyan Chapel, Bangor. His first wife died in 1880, and in 1881 he married a Mrs Evans, widow of Evan Evans of Erw Fair, Bangor. She died in 1895.
John Williams died on July 23, 1907 at the age of 90, following a long illness. A funeral service was held at St Paul's and he was buried at Glanadda cemetery.
