Biography

William was born in 1757.

From Brother-Charles’ obituary:

Obituary: Died at his residence in Rutherford County, 3rd Inst., Charles Ready, Sr. Esq. The deceased was born at Salsbury, in the State of Maryland, on the 1st of April, 1770, and was in the 90th year of his age, when he died. His father having died at the commencement [p.17] of the Revolutionary war, his widowed mother removed with him and an older brother to North Carolina where with limited means she raised her two sons to manhood. Shortly after the subject of this notice attained his majority, he married and settled in Edgefield District, S. C. From there he removed in 1797 to Sumner County, Tennessee, and in 1802 he removed to his late residence in Rutherford County. At the establishment of Rutherford County in 1803, he was appointed one of the Justices of the Peace, and presided at the first County Court held in Rutherford County. He was one of the Commissioners who located the town of Murfreesboro in 1812.
