We see records of him in Georgia on a tax digest roll in 1811 as owning 50 acres. By 1813 he acquired 101.5 acres of land and had 1 slave.
He was a private in the War of 1812 between 23 Aug 1813 and 8 Mar 1814 in the 2nd Regiment Jenkins Georgia Volunteers and Militia.
He is in the 1820 Jones Co., GA census. He won a parcel of land in the Georgia land lottery of 1821 in Fayett Co. granted 15 Nov 1825. William probably gave or sold the land lottery to his brother, Zachariah. William stayed behind in Jones Co., and was granted guardianship of William O. Daniel (an "idiot") to take care of his person and property. In 1821 he had 75 acres on Wolf Creek next to Mr. Duncan and had 1 slave in Jones Co. He is not mentioned in any 1830 GA census - probably deceased.
