I've now found two separate group sheets listing Prudence Elliot as Daniel's spouse.  Interestingly, these sheets show all but one of their children were born in Michigan, so I suspect Daniels place of death may not be Cayuga County.

Hmmm.  Now we have the problem of two different people named Daniel Williams, both born in Cayuga county New York in 1803.  The one I found now married Mercy Robinson and had at least three children, all of which were born in Venice, NY.  This make more sense, becouse "our" Daniel was supposed to have died in New York, and it doesn't seem likely to me that the one that went off to Michigan would come back to NY to die.

Poking around in the census data, I did find the above family listed on the 1850 census for Locke, a town in Cayuga County just a few miles Southeast of Venice.  This may be the right family.
