Note:
Daughters Mary, Keziah, Elizabeth were added as children on his profile even though it is assumed that they died without issue bet 1776 and 1800 (dates of writing of Last Will & Testaments of William and wife Dinah.) He listed them between Sarah and Dinah in his LWT; wife Dinah did not mention them probably because they were not alive then. (note originally added by Adams-16917 and edited by Lake-1774)
