Best Answer

Hugh Williamson was a great founding father. He was represented one of the states at the convention. The convention was held by George Washington who was also a great founding father. Everyone that represented a state was at the convention except for the representers of Rhode Island. They were against the convention, and did not want to come. Anyway, Williamson spoke up about slavery at the convention. He was against it. Other than that, he was very quiet. He did not like to talk a lot, unless it was a matter concerning his state, a major matter concerning his country, or him.
