The Personal Papers consist of biographical writings, clippings, correspondence, diaries, memorabilia, typescripts of short stories, and personal records (e.g. employment, financial, genealogical, legal, and medical). There are 15 correspondence files, including four files with Dr. Williams' wife, Mary Williams. The latter provide personal information about events at home and about detailed travel itineraries, hardships, personnel, and accomplishments from field locations throughout the world. Several files contain records and memorabilia relating to Dr. Williams' membership in religious and fraternal organizations and his participation in a variety of Welsh and Welsh-American organizations. Notable items include diaries (English and Spanish) of field trips to the upper Orinoco River basin (1941-42) and to the Peruvian Amazon (1959) and a missionary's account of travel to the North Lushai Hills of Assam, India (1924).
