William was the son of Joshua Zachary and Sarah Jane Wilkerson on 17 Nov 1873 in Stringtown, Tennessee. [1]
I'm at a loss to explain the SS Index and the 1870 census. In 1870, Willie is 3. Could be that this was an older Willie/William who died and then this William came along 6 years later and they named him after the son who had died. Possible and has been done before. Cindy
