Bill Williamson is a recurring character in the Red Dead series, appearing as a central character and the tertiary antagonist in Red Dead Redemption, and as a major character in Red Dead Redemption 2.
Background
Bill Williamson was born Marion Williamson in 1866. Embarrassed by his first name, which was supposedly a "family name," he would later adopt the name "Bill" after his surname. Bill's father was an alcoholic who slowly lost his mind due to his excessive drinking, notably mixing whiskey with moonshine. Bill was always afraid of suffering the same fate. From a young age, Bill displayed a tendency towards delinquency. Even after being enrolled in reform school, Williamson continued to accumulate a criminal record. At some point, Bill joined the Army and was assigned to the 15th infantry and claimed to have also served in the cavalry as well. He notably fought against Native Americans, before eventually being dishonorably discharged for deviancy and attempted murder on December 27, 1892. He lived rough for the next year or so, drinking heavily and robbing people on the highway. At one point, he was robbed by a "woman" (implied to be a cross-dresser). One day in 1893, he tried to rob Dutch van der Linde and Hosea Matthews, but was taken aback when they simply laughed at him(They had stolen his ammunition prior). Though Bill was angry, Dutch cheered him up and gave him purpose, offering him a place in the Van der Linde gang. Despite this, Bill still vividly remembered the horrifying things he'd seen during his time in the Army. For the next six years Williamson would go on to be a gunman for the Van der Linde gang. During his time in the gang, he committed a number of crimes, which included robbery, raids, murder, kidnapping, and various other misdeeds across the frontier. Some time prior to 1899, Bill accompanied Arthur Morgan and Uncle in a bank robbery in Canada, serving as a gunman. By 1899, the gang had moved east to West Elizabeth near Blackwater, when Dutch decided to undertake an ambitious heist to rob a boat that was carrying a significant amount of money. However, the robbery turned out to be a disaster, and the gang was forced to flee north into the mountains of Ambarino to escape the law, settling in an abandoned mining town named Colter.
Events of Red Dead Redemption
By 1911, Bill leads his own gang, having moved to New Austin and occupying Fort Mercer, which was previously the domain of the Del Lobos. He becomes particularly feared in the region, with his new group becoming the dominant outlaw gang in the state. In the same year, John Marston is extorted into hunting down his former brothers in arms, with Bill Williamson being the first target.
Personality
During his time in the Van der Linde gang, Bill Williamson was loyal to Dutch and the gang and was a respected member, being skilled as a rifleman and explosives expert. Because Dutch gave him purpose, Bill is loyal to him to a fault, and staunchly supports Dutch's every decision, even after Dutch starts going insane. Bill's loyalty to Dutch is implied to be at least partially motivated by fear; not of Dutch himself, but of what the future holds for him should he end up alone again. He is also shown to be driven by the desire to prove himself, though he often falls short because of his recklessness and lack of intelligence. Bill was also considerably softer during his time with the gang; he empathized with low morale after the failure in Blackwater, voluntarily participated in the assault on Braithwaite Manor to rescue Jack Marston, allegedly had a strong attachment to his horse and disapproved of Micah taunting Arthur for his illness. Like his father, Bill is an alcoholic and often gets inebriated to the point of passing out, something he is routinely mocked for by his fellow gang members. Despite his aggressive and profoundly violent nature, Williamson appears to be somewhat of a laughing stock within the gang itself, with members routinely picking on him due to his alcoholism, lack of intelligence, and mistakes he has made. Bill himself appears annoyed by this, as he admits to Arthur that he feels like he gets treated worse than the other gunmen. In his more vulnerable moments, he also reveals himself to be quite socially awkward, seeking friendship and approval from people like Arthur and Kieran. Bill is also very insecure about many things, particularly his name being Marion, something he only tells a few members in confidence. According to Arthur, Bill carries around a "big secret", though what exactly this is remains unexplored. He is shown to have a good friendship with Javier Escuella, likely stemming from both of them having similar levels of experience in the gang and both looking up to Dutch greatly; this friendship is shown when Javier will be the one to rescue Bill from bounty hunters if he is captured, Bill sharing his thoughts with Javier on who the “rat” is when the gang began to collapse, and Bill being chosen to look after the wounded Javier on Guarma, as well as the fact that Bill presumably ran away with Javier after the standoff. Both sided against Arthur and John, but neither joined Dutch, Micah, Cleet and Joe in pursuing them. By 1911, this friendship is still evident, as Javier helps Bill to escape to Mexico, despite the fact that it risked drawing John towards him too, putting his own life in danger. By the time he left the gang, Bill's personality took a darker and bleaker turn. He became amoral, ruthless, ambitious, power-hungry, self-serving, and greedy. His heinousness is exemplified through countless acts of crime and intimidation, including arson, kidnapping, murder, and rape. Bill became something of a disloyal coward as well, likely stemming from paranoia. Bill never directly fights John, opting to send his men to fight and escape death at every opportunity. Throughout his life as a criminal, Bill became both respected and feared by the people and criminals of New Austin, with Bonnie even calling him "the worst bandit in the county". Many criminals and bandits such as Norman Deek chose to follow Williamson, making him one of the most dangerous and powerful criminals in the area. Ironically, in the end, without Dutch's guidance and the rest of his comrades, Bill became transformed into the exact thing he was afraid of becoming.

General
•Bill states that the reason he joined Dutch's cause is that he saw what power can do to people while he was in the army. This foreshadows his own fate, as 12 years later Bill becomes a ruthless megalomaniac and a shadow of his former self while being in charge of his own gang.
•Bill is seemingly unaware that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west.
•The pin which holds the side of Bill's hat up in Red Dead Redemption bears the symbol of the Freemasons (The Square and Compasses).
•In Red Dead Redemption 2, however, the pin is a U.S Cavalry insignia.
•In Red Dead Redemption, Bill’s real name was identified as William Williamson in No. 58 of the Blackwater Ledger. Although, in Red Dead Redemption 2, Bill’s real name was confirmed to be Marion Williamson. It could be assumed that nobody outside of the original gang knew his birth name and thus the full name of Bill (William) was used instead.
