Biography
William was born about 1822 in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.[1] He was the son of Thomas Anderson and Margaret (—?—).
He married Elizabeth Spence circa 1847, probably in Allegheny County.[2]
He apparently died before the 1850 census was taken in August, as Betty was a head of household with her two-year-old son.[3]
