  • Notes 
    • In 1850, William was a farmer with $1250 living with his family in Lexington, Scott County, Indiana.

      On the 1850 census, his wife's age is given as 58 which would place her birth in about 1792. But other references give her birthdate as 2 May 1794.

      The Ellis reference says William was the son of Arthur Monroe [3444].
