Boswell, H. James. American Blue Book Western Washington, Seattle, Lowman and Hanford Co., 1922. p. 153. GEO. G. WILLIAMSON, of Tacoma, is one of the ablest and best known lawyers of Washington. A North Carolinian by birth, he came to Washington at the age of 14, in 1889, and in 1897, was admitted to the bar from Tacoma, where his distinguished father, Judge J. A. Williamson, occupied a place on the Superior bench from 1896 to 1900. Mr. Williamson was associated with his father in the firm of Williamson & Williamson from 1900 until Judge Williamson's death in 1910. From 1912 to 1920 Mr. Williamson was senior member of the firm of Williamson, Williamson & Freeman, which was succeeded in 1920 by the present firm of Williamson, Freeman & Broenkow. While Mr. Williamson is engaged in general practice, he specializes in corporation matters and his firm represents a number of large interests. He limits his practice to civil proceedings, and like the majority of successful attorneys, notwithstanding his recognized ability as a trial lawyer, he goes into court only as a last resort. A man of strong character, a deep thinker and close student of human nature, Mr. Williamson enjoys a large and well deserved measure of success. In 1899 Mr. Williamson was married to Miss Opal Tillman, of Ohio, and their son, James Tillman Williamson, is now at Berkeley, Cal. Mr. Willaimson, is an Elk, a Mason and a member of the bar association. Submitted by: Judy Bivens * * * * Notice: These biographies were transcribed for the Washington Biographies Project.
