William was father of Isabella & Anne, who both married Methodist preachers. Anne married Rev. Henry Moore and Isabella married Rev. Thomas Rutherford, who in his memoir noted that both he and Isabella had both been left fatherless when they were young.[1] Thus, in all likelihood, William had died before 1770 by which time Isabella would have been fifteen.
