!By order of Pres Brigham Young he helped start several communities including: Vernal, Utah; Northern Arizona; and was sent or went to Mexico to escape pologamy persecution. Had kids in Eden, Fairview, Pleasant Veiw, and Vernal, Utah; Colonia Diaz and Colonia Dublan, Mexico; and Tucson (Binghampton), Arizona: and is buried at the cemetary at Binghampton, Arizona.
!Was a counselor in the first Bishopric in Colonia Dublan, Mexico, with Bishop Winslow Farr and Phillip H. Hurst. In 1890 Frederick Williams, Winslow Farr, Brigham Bingham and William Staker, with their families, went into Mexico to settle. They went by train as far as Deming, New Mexico, where they assembled their wagons and supplies and traveled by team to Diaz, Mexico. Here Mormon friends welcomed them and helped them to pitch their tents and set up housekeeping.
!The winter was spent in Diaz, during which time the Williamses and Farrs and
others ventured over the country looking for a suitable place to settle,
finally arriving at the Huller Project. in the spring of 1891, they moved onto this land. It was a large open prairie covered with dry grass, without
water,and no wood within miles. It looked discouraging, but they pitched their tents on lots selected for them and obtained permission from a Mexican farmer to haul water from the river some 2 miles distant.
!Frederick Williams soon dug a well and equiped it with a pulley, a rope and 2 5 gallon kegs to draw the water. He then built a trough to carry it to a small garden plot he had planted. He also hauled lumber from the mountains and built the family a 4 room house. But he finally realized that it would be years before a canal could be built, so he bought a farm close to the river and moved the house near it. Here he raised crops to feed the family. During the first years in Mexico the saints lived mostly on cornmeal mixed with water. The olny store was 6 miles distant, and from it they could buy only the essentials of life such as matches, salt, a dark brown sugar in cone shape, Mexican cloth and shoes. An adobe school and meetinghouse was later erected with a stage in one end. Here they held their meetings, went to school, and staged plays for amusement.

The name of the company in Mexico was "The Mexican Agricultural and
Colonization Company". Organized for the purpose of holding title to the land purchased and to conduct the business of the colonization in Mexico. A
corporation, It was formed under the laws of the State of Colorado. Most of the settlers in Dublan purchased land from individuals in that area and so were able to get deeds for their property. Book, "Chronicles Of Courage", page 17.
