17, 1834 d. July 23, 1907. There is no indication of service,
but none of his children seem to have been born before 1870. It's
probably a good guess that he was Confederate if he served at all.

His daughter married son of Robert Ellingsworth. William was enrolled
in Co. F 14 Reg MO State Militia as a Private. He was probably in
Kansas when the war broke out, as my gg grandmother was born in KS 1860.
