    • Although the actual record states that the Marriage License took place on January 27, 1857 I find this to be highly unlikely. They were married on January 22, 1857 so I believe that the 7 is supposed to be a 1.

  • Notes 
    • Although the 1880 Census lists a child Minnie being born in 1865 and a daughter, nowhere else is there a Minnie listed with William's parents. I do believe this was in error by the census taker and actually should be William.
