He was baptized in the holy trinity church. His father was an average leather merchant and his mother was an heiress. (not a barber, someone who handles dead bodies). Together they made enough money to give William an open education. He was married at 18 to a widowed pregnant woman who was 26. Together they had three kids, one girl named Susan, and two twins. Sadly, the older twin hamnet died of unknown causes. He later died on his birth day at 52 years old.
