There is confusion re William's DOB. His death cert shows Nov 4 1828, his marker is engraved 1826. However, he is not in 1830 census record with his parents. He is assumed to be one of the two boys ages bet 5-9 in 1840 census, and is shown as age 20 in 1850 census. He gave his DOB information as Nov 1830 on the 1900 census, used here.
