!NOTES:"Betsy" is a common nickname for "Elizabeth", but William also has a proven daughter named Elizabeth by his 2nd wife, so that is a bit confusing. She is clearly listed as "Betsy" in the Will and in the estate papers.;
!NOTE:Don't know who Betsy's husband was, other than "Mr. Cantrell". However, I believe Joseph Cantrell is the best suspect, but have no solid proof other than him being next to William Davis in 1810 census;
