Biography
Supporting facts are weak to non-existent, so William's identity is conjectural and the sources of his identity and birth date create conflicts. More research is needed to resolve these issues.
Notes
- Regardless of which of conflicting birth dates is valid, William was born before Jamestown was colonized — therefore, a site in England is presumed.
