| Special thanks to Jennifer and Terry Dorsey for the images below. Jennifer's dad is Robert Tyler Simpson, the stepson of Guinn 'Big Boy' Williams. Jennifer was born after Big Boy passed away. Terry and Jennifer also provided some updates and corrections to Williams' biography. Excerpts and summarizations from their e-mails follow: "... he was last married to Dorothy Peterson (not Patterson ... a common mistake). And his son Tyler was actually his step son Robert Tyler Simpson (Dorothy's son from a previous marriage to Fred R. Simpson (1913-1990) who was a film and TV assistant director/production manager, et al)." |
