Joseph Judson Williams Jr. (July 20, 1905 – August 3, 1968) was a Virginia lawyer and banker, who served part-time for more than two decades representing Henrico County, Virginia, in the Virginia House of Delegates.[1] A member of the Byrd Organization, Williams participated in its Massive Resistance to racial integration, but left that political crisis to serve as a member of the Federal Home Loan Bank Board for the three years before his death.
