Note: He had a younger brother also named "William" who was born on 13 Oct 1742. Thus, we presume this William died before his younger brother was born. Otherwise, there would have been two living brothers both named "William".

Many researchers have her date of death as 25 Jun 1756 with burial in Midway, Liberty Co., Georgia. However, on 11 Nov 1757 she was qualified to be the executrix of her late 2nd husband's (i.e., John Norman's) will, and was thus still alive on that date, so a 02 Jan 1758 date of death appears most likely.
