...William married Mary Ann Ellis in Indiana. William and Mary primarily stayed in Ozark, MO where they settled along Bryant Creek, building one of the first mills and cotton gins, later known as Hodgson. 40 acres of land purchased in 1869 on the Sycamore area. This mill was destroyed about 1876 due to a flood on Bryant Creek. Several researchers have posted this information on many sites and I will not repeat it here.
...Civil War Military Records show he served on the Union side of the civil war, Infantry 42nd & 43rd.
...Mary and William together had eleven children; all children were born in Missouri except Mary Louise, in IL.: William J., Asa, George Washington, John Thomas, Lucinda, Burton A., Mary Louise Auld/s, Nancy Jane Auld/s, Margaret Emily Oliver, William Henry, and Susan Sarah Mauldin.
...William is estimated to be buried in Roper Cemetery in MO, Douglas County. This cemetery is on the banks of Bryant Creek. Over the years an undetermined number of graves have been washed away when the creek flooded. There are several unnamed gravestones. Widow Mary filed for a military widow's pension, and sold the property in 1879.
