==Appearance==
William was 5'9" tall with blue eyes, brown hair and a light complexion.<ref name="Roger"/>

==Life==
In 1850 William was living in Duanesburg, Schenectady County, NY with his young family and he was working as a farmer.<ref name="1850Census"/> At about the same time, his parents and siblings were living in Fulton, Schoharie County, NY.<ref name="SchCoHistReview"/>

In 1860 William and his wife were living in Berne with their three children, where William was working as a shoemaker.<ref name="1860Census">1860 US Census, Berne, Albany Co, NY</ref> They did not own any property at the time.<ref name="1860Census"/>

The family relocated in the 1860s to Middleburgh, Schoharie County, NY where William continued working as a shoemaker.<ref name="1870Census">1870 US Census, Middleburg, Schoharie Co, NY</ref> By this time their family had grown and their son Ambrose worked as a farm laborer.

A decade later in 1880, William and his family had moved to Esperance, Schoharie Co, NY where William continued to work as a shoemaker and his son John worked as a moulder.<ref name="1880Census">1880 US Census, Esperance, Schoharie Co, NY</ref> At this time their niece Rhoda Wilber, who was 10 years of age was living with the family.

The 1890 US Veterans Census found William again living in Middleburgh, Schoharie County. It confirms his Civil War service in the 7th Heavy Artillery Regiment and recorded that he had been shot in the left side.<ref name="1890Census">1890 US Veterans Census, Middleburg, Schoharie Co, NY</ref>

Despite his Civil War injury, William lived a long life living into his mid eighties. He apparently remained healthy throughout his lifetime as it appears that he did not file for an invalid pension.<ref name="Pension">Civil War Pension Index, Ancestry.com</ref>

==Death==
William died on December 13, 1903. He was buried in Middleburgh, Schoharie County, NY.<ref name="Roger"/> After his death his wife Jenett moved to Ravena, Albany County where she died in 1929.<ref name="Roger"/> She was buried with her husband in Middleburgh.<ref name="Roger"/>
