William came to America in 1733. He was one of 59 persons who joined the Old Tennent Presbyterian Church, Freehold, on June 8, 1735. The following year, his wife Rebecca became a member. They probably married in the intervening time.
Rebecca is known to have died in the 1750's and William, after marrying Elizabeth Cox, died intestate in 1773. Elizabeth was appointed administrator of his estate on March 27, 1773, so William must have died in early 1773.
Some say William's father is Henry, some say Benjamin. Some say Benjamin is related to the Annesleys
