William C Broadwater (1811-1907), bro of Amos, m Jane Warnick (1814-1886) of New Germany. He was known as "King Billie". "The lived on his father's farm (Charles Broadwater) on the Savage River for a time. They later bought and moved to 'the Meshec Schultz farm of 300 acres just south of Grantsville'. This was part of the old Cornucopia tract on which old Grantsville was established in the late 1700s." "In later years, William's son Gilead and his grandson, J.U. Stanton, divided the farm. William lived with his son Gilead and the farm passed to Gilead's son, Nevin, until the 1970's Nevin's son and grandson, David and Ronald Broadwater, operated the original farm."

"Of the Broadwaters Jacob Brown wrote, 'The Broadwater race have become so numerous in the course of four generations that it would be impossible here to go into particulars beyond these now given, but it can be said in truth & proproety, that as a race they have been and are honest, industious, thrifty and law abiding."
