Research Notes / Profile History
He was connected to Anne (King) Vassall as his mother; however, she would have been 73 years old at his birth. So, I've disconnected her. Also, her husband's last name does not match with William's father's last name. It's possible that his family's name was originally Vassall and evolved into Vestal at some point, but he is definitely not connected to the correct generation. -- Fiscus-32 11:58, 2 January 2017 (EST)
