William was born in 1842[1][2] in Dacre, Yorkshire[2]. He was the son of Alice Houseman[2]. Alice did not marry Heslington William Robinson (1814 - 1902)[2] until 1846, but given William's full name (and that he gives Heslington as his father on his marriage record) there is a strong likelihood that he was William's biological father.
William married Ann Myers (1843 - 1911) on 20 April 1870 at Pateley Bridge [3]. They had four children: Heslington Willam Robinson Houseman (1871 - 1948), John Robinson Houseman (1873 - 1934), Ann Houseman (1876 - X) and Frederick Houseman (1879 - X).
He died, aged 78[4], in 1921[4].
