1. (historical) Of or relating to the reign of William III of England from 1689 to 1702.
   1. Of or relating to his followers who deposed James II in the Glorious Revolution.
      • [1689?], Better Late than Never, →OCLC, signature A, recto, column 1:

        For whether King James, or K. William prevails, all our ancient Privileges ſeem expiring; and we are threatened, on all ſides, with Military and Arbitrary Government, unleſs we make a Tender of the Crown upon the Terms of the Conſtitution, to the King we have hitherto Abdicated, and who cannot, in common Honeſty, and according to the genuine ſignification of the Word, be ſaid to have abdicated his Crown, till he refuſes it upon thoſe Terms; which if he ſhould, the Diſtinction of His and the Williamite Party would ſoon have an End, […]

        For to whom ſhould I dedicate a Book of this kind, I mean ſuch a Williamite one, if I may be allowed to ſpeak ſtill in our late Dialect, if not to your Grace?

      • 1974, Earl Miner, “Introduction”, in Augustan Reprint Society, Poems on the Reign of William III (1690, 1696, 1699, 1702) (Publication Number 166), Los Angeles, Calif.: William Andrews Clark Memorial Library, →OCLC, page i:

        The poems reprinted here ought to enter some partial exceptions to the rule that between the reigns of James II and of Queen Anne the one poetic exception is Dryden. In these publicly crowded years he gave the world, from his retirement, or exile, the Satires of 1693, the Virgil of 1697, and the Fables of 1700. But he would not be drawn over to the King’s side, and the student of poetry must look to less familiar writers if he is to find anything of a Williamite character worth his attention.

      • 2006, Christopher A[llan] Whatley with Derek J. Patrick, “War, Trade and Tariffs”, in The Scots and the Union, Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, published 2007, →ISBN, chapter 4 (The 1690s: a nation in crisis), page 157:

        A war which for many who supported it in England was waged in defence of the Protestant religion and against popish idolatory, had its supporters in Scotland too, primarily Revolutioners, that is Williamite whigs and presbyterians, some of whom were even more fervent in their commitment to the Protestant cause than their English brethren.

   2. Of architecture or furnishings: of the style of that period.
      • 1950, The Burlington Magazine, numbers 562–573, London: The Burlington Magazine Publications, →OCLC, page 7, column 2:

        In proportions and even in origin perhaps the nearest parallel is the bedstead which stood formerly in that great storehouse of Williamite furniture, Hampton Court, Herefordshire.

Kornwolf with Georgiana W[allis] Kornwolf, “The College of William and Mary, 1693–1699”, in Architecture and Town Planning in Colonial North America (Creating the North American Landscape), volume 2, Baltimore, Md.: The Johns Hopkins University Press, →ISBN, part II (England in North America, 1585–1867), chapter 4 (England in Virginia, 1585–1776), page 582, column 2:

        Because the presumably more elaborate gardens of the Governor’s Palace, laid out between 1711 and 1720, were in place when the plate was engraved, it is surprising how little is shown there and how detailed the gardens of the College are by comparison. The latter, which are very “Williamite,” parallel closely the gardens London had recently laid out at Hampton Court (Figs. I.iib, 4.43c).

      • 2017, William Alvis Brogden, “Exton Park”, in Ichnographia Rustica: Stephen Switzer and the Designed Landscape, Abingdon, Oxfordshire; New York, N.Y.: Routledge, →ISBN, chapter 6 (Essays in the landscape style), page 209:

        These older features have the severe simplicity typical of the 1730s. They may well have enjoyed a more Williamite fanciness in previous generations, but the tenor of the illustrated Exton landscape was exceptionally (to our eyes) abstracted, made up of very large areas of close cropped turf within, and equally severe parkland without. And these are set within a seeming limitless planar topography.

   3. (not comparable) Of glassware: bearing a portrait or emblem of him, as an indication of anti-Jacobite sentiments.

        It seems to be a well-established fact that the Williamite glasses were not made and decorated primarily for Orange clubs, but for use in private houses on special days of Orange festivals—1st July, the day of the Boyne; 4th November, the King’s birthday and wedding day, etc.

      • [1905], Percy Bate, “Inscribed and Historic Glasses”, in English Table Glass (Newnes’ Library of the Applied Arts), London: George Newnes Limited […]; New York, N.Y.: Charles Scribner’s Sons, →OCLC, page 105:

        No. 213 is a Williamite glass bearing the inscription—"the immortal memory;” others read, "to the glorious memory of king william”—words from the Orange toast which begins, “To the glorious, pious, and immortal memory of the great and good King William, who freed us from Pope and Popery, knavery and slavery, brass money and wooden shoes,” and concludes, after much inconsequent verbiage, with the hope that he who refuses the toast may be “damned, crammed, and rammed down the great gun of Athlone.”

      • 1996 March 23, Christopher Proudlove, “A toast to our good friends in the north”, in Alastair Machray, editor, Daily Post, North West edition, Liverpool, Merseyside: Liverpool Daily Post & Echo Ltd, →OCLC, page 22, column 5:
