- against William, although partially erased, it appears to show there were 12 children, 5 living and 7 had died (but this is very unclear)

  Noted events in his life were:

• Occupation: Gardener.

William married Mary ELSTON, daughter of William ELSTON and Jane ERSCOTT, circa Sep 1862 in St Thomas, Exeter, Devon, England. (Mary ELSTON was born circa Dec 1843 in Cheriton Bishop, Devon, England and died between 1891 and 1901.)

William next married Sarah HAWKINGS. (Sarah HAWKINGS was born circa 1835 in Cheriton Bishop, Devon, England.)
