He served as president of the Kentucky Society of the Sons of the American Revolution, and also as chairman of the tennis committee of the Pastime Boat Club. He was a member of the Filson Club, the Optimist Club and the Dale Carnegie Club. He married Lorene Doris Knobloch on July 29,1932. They had no children. Williams battled cancer for 20 years and died 1952.
