Okay, so on Family Search it is showing the father of William Sanford Pickett to be George Pickett (1658-1741): https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Pickett-1812

However there are two other secondary sources that list his parents as John Picket (1678-1742) and Mary (d. 1739).

Which includes sources:

Withers-America, or, A collection of genealogical data concerning the history of the descendant in the male line of James Withers (1680/1-1746) of Stafford County, Virginia. by Franz V. Recum, page 11 (New York: 1949, 342 pages).
