• Notes

  U S Census 1850 & 1860 list William living Marion Co., TN. Appears as William Larger in 1860 will. Born: In 1830 census, David Layne born between 1790 & 1800, with 2 male children under 5, 2 male children 10-15, 1 female under 5, 1 female 5-10, so William H must be born 1815 or later. 1850 census lists William as 38 and 1860 census lists him as 44, so 1816 most likely year of birth. Died: Lived with brother Abraham at Burkett's Chapel, Grundy Co., TN where both were miners; both hanged by Confederate soldiers as result of activities supporting the Union cause.
