Biography
Arance Williamson is individually documented in Charles Payne’s history of civil-rights-related custody in Mississippi.
Payne reports that Arance and her younger sister Rebecca were arrested at a demonstration and recognized at the jail by a lawyer who knew their mother’s employer. The book’s photograph caption identifies Susie Morgan’s daughter as Arance Williamson, and its index gives the name Arance Morgan Williamson. The actual jailing is not individually dated; no arrest year, admission, discharge or duration is invented.
