Research Notes
The death date is suspect. It is doubtful William lived to 113 and thus the date is wrong. I could not come up with any citations to change the date even after an exhaustive search. One source stated that church records in Andover, CO were destroyed and no records exist of him or his family. But that citation is from a history of Maine. "Genealogical and Family History of the State of Maine" Lewis Historical Publishing Company, New York 1909. [3]. Did he move to Maine? This citation states further that he married and had five children.
