Biography

First marriage was to Nancy Oakley (1799-1870). They had Elizabeth, Jane, Joseph and Fielding. William and Nancy divorced in 1849.

After his divorce he married widow Malinda Helms Russell in 1849. Malinda had Malinda, Mary, Lydia, Perry and Justis from husband John Russell who died.

William & Malinda are listed together on the 1850 Greene County Indiana Census Report, then again in 1870. After the 1870 census they seemed to "disappear" into the Arkansas mountains and were never heard from or seen again.

According to his written essay “Genealogy of the Hatfields”, written in 1930s, Larkin B Hatfield stated that his aunts, Martha Hatfield Powell & Susan Hatfield McGuffey, went to live on “Uncle William’s farm in Arkansas” while their husbands fought in an Arkansas Union regiment during the Civil War. LB was speaking of Great-Uncle William.
