The elder had several siblings in the area. Some of their names were, Leonard, Almus, Doc,Ted, & Thelma(married an Allen). They moved to the Tampa area after the younger William was born (1923). We think there are lots of relatives still in the area that might help put their history together. Any help will be greatly appreciated, as we've searched a long time.
