On October 1, 1794 Allan Gowen deeded property on the South Pacolet River to William Easley, his niece's husband, according to Greenville County Deed Book D, page 72. John "Buck" Gowen, William Gowen and William Anderson were witnesses to the deed.

In 1811 William Anderson lived in Kentucky.

They removed to Sumter County, Alabama. She died there October 27, 1843, according to her obituary:

“Died Mrs Elizabeth Anderson, consort of William Anderson Sr. Esq. in the 73rd year of her age. She was married to Mr. Anderson at the age of 16, having been born in South Carolina in 1770.

Elizabeth Easley was the daughter of John Easley, 1st Lieutenant in the Revolutionary War and his wife Ann Gowen. John's father was John Easley and his mother was Joyce Easley; this John's parents were Warham Easley and his wife Sara Barnes; Warham's father and mother were Robert Easley and Ann Parker. Warham Easley's will is in Book 1 page 84 and mentions sons Creed T, Samuel W, Christopher B, daughter Martha Easley Foreman, wife Emily, minor heirs: Catherine, Maria, Elizabeth Jane and Virginia Noble. Warham Easley lived near Belmont.”

William Easley died February 11, 1848 at age 80.

The following obituaries from the Sumter County Whig were located in 1960 and sent to Miss Dozier by Mrs. Nelle A. Jenkins of Emelle, Alabama. Mrs. Jenkins wrote on 12 January 1960, "These papers were unearthed only last fall. They had lain in a vault in the Registrar's Office for about 115 years. In 1974, W. H. McGowen, Jr., Attorney at Law, 2025 3rd Avenue North, Birmingham, Alabama 35203, sent Easley/Anderson information from: Nelle Morris Jenkins, Pioneer Families of Sumter County, Alabama (Tuscaloosa, AL: Willo Publishing Company, 1961). They are as follows:"

"Died Mr. William Anderson, Sen., 80 years of age, Friday night 11 Feb 1845. He had been to Livingston that day attending to business. He went home with half a dozen friends, ate a hearty supper and soon after without a sigh, moan or a groan he fell to the floor a helpless corpse. He was a zealous and devoted friend.: a kind and affectionate husband, father, and master; he was emphatically an honest man. He had children, grandchildren and great grandchildren to mourn his death."

Mrs. Jenkins also stated that William Anderson was Postmaster at Pushmataha, AL.

Jenkins, p. 184. "William Anderson was first cousin of Robert Anderson for whom Anderson County, South Carolina was named; William's parents were John and *Ann (Erwin) Anderson--Ann's parents were Matthew Erwin and wife of Augusta County, Virginia; John Anderson's parents were James and Jean Anderson who immigrated from Scotland to Philadelphia, Penn., thence to Augusta County, Virginia. William Anderson was closely related to John Anderson of Greenville County, South Carolina, who was killed along with his sons Joshua and Scarlett and from whom Vincent Anderson, who died 7 April 1833 in Sumter County, was descended."

  • Ann Erwin was thought to have been William's mother but his Bible States SARAH which fits SARAH CARNEY But I Can't Explain why he named his Son John Erwin Anderson.
  • Sara BARNES was "Mrs Sara Barnes" her Surname is RAIBONE
