William was married twice and had children by both wives. There is some controversy about which wife bore which children. The name "Gent" may just mean "gentleman" and could have been added as part of his name in error.
He served as Colonel of Westmoreland County, Virginia, Justice of the Peace and Member of the House of Burgesses
He served as executor of his father's will.
John Piper, the father of his first wife, Rachel, left a will, 25 Sep 1759, in which he gives land and five negros to William and his wife. Rachel was the sister of Col. John and Frank Triplet of King George County, Virginia.
One reference gives William's birthdate as 1692 and gives the deathdate of Rachel Piper, his second wife, as 1759 (Williams says she died in 1775). Guilford and ref 1 says William died in 1760. Petersen says William died in 1773.

William was said to be a "Huguenot refugee of noble birth." He may have been one of three brothers who were deported from Scotland as indentured servants for following "Bonnie Prince Charlie". One supposedly went to Massachusetts, one to Annapolis, and one to New Orleans.
The following are notes which were copied by Frank A. Munroe, Jr. from "an old notebook" which cannot be found now.
"Wm. Munroe had Thomas Bailey bound the 11th day of August 1774 and to serve 3 1/2 years"
"1776 entered to share with Jibbert August 17, 1775."
"1788 went to live at Edward's house May 7. Left there February 5, 1779." (The 1788 date must be incorrect. It probably should be 1778. It is not known who Edward was.)
"John Munroe went to Annapolis June 22, 1780 to go an apprentice being 17 years old August 6th next."
These notes carry a lot of unknown meanings except that John Munroe was William's oldest son and the dates correspond exactly with the date of his birth.
