  • Notes 
    • William may have been born in Jefferson County, Indiana. One reference gives his marriage date at 20 Sep 1847 and says he died in 1872/3 in Jefferson County, Indiana.

      In 1850, he was a carpenter living with his family in Frankford, Indiana.

      He served in Company P, 9th Regiment, Indiana Volunteers, in the Civil War.

      In 1880, his wife (widow?), Emily (or Mary) Carr was living with the younger children in Jennings, Indiana. Her granddaughter, Lunetta, was also living with her at that time. Emily was the daughter of Thomas and Elvira (Parker) Carr.

      On Sep 1886, Emily was judged insane. It took two men to control her. She was home again in 1887. She died after 1900.

      William and Emily had nine children, but only three were living in 1900. Two of her children, Ruth Monroe and Pleasent B. Monroe may have been from a previous marriage.
