Louis Williams (1889 – unknown) was an English footballer.

Playing career

Williams played for North Staffs Nomads before joining league club Stoke in 1907. He played 33 games for the club in the 1907–08 season, only to find the club resigning from the league due to financial difficulties. In 1908 he moved on to Second Division champions Bradford City and later played for Bristol Rovers before moving back to Staffordshire in June 1912 to join Port Vale. Williams failed to gain a regular place in a team aiming to gain re-election to the Football League and was duly released at the end of the 1912–13 season.[1]
