William's birthdate was calculated from death record in Wetzel Co. He was born in Pa. Greene Co., but not sure of township (possibly Wayne Twp.).

About 1854 they moved to Paden Fork where Malvina, Martha, Salem and William were born. Around 1865 they moved back to Ohio (Greene Twp.) and Jacob, Alice and David were born there. William and Sara are burried in the Evans Cemetery on Paden Fork. 13 Jan 1901.
