William was the son of Benjamin Juda Schwartz and Sarah Klein. He was married to Maude Williams (Aug 11 1904 PA-Oct 1979 Sussex Co., DE) by a rabbi in 1928 in Wilmington. She was the daughter of Evan H. (abt 1878) and Mary E. (abt 1876) Williams. Maude's parents were both born in Wales. Evan worked as a wheelman at a silk mill. He immigrated in 1897 and Mary in about 1881. William and Maude Schwartz were the parents of one known child~

~Beryle J. Schwartz (abt 1930)

In 1940 William was a retail coal salesman and Maude was working as a hat checker at a nightclub. Later his profession was real estate and business owner. He lived at 800 West Street in Wilmington. He died in Wilmington Hospital.

Note~Over a year and half after creating memorials for the Schwartz family in Lombardy Cemetery where they were originally buried, someone has been making duplicates and placing them in the newer Jewish Community Center Cemetery without even checking for existing memorials with the exact same names and dates. According to the International Jewish Cemetery Project, the Jewish Community Cemetery includes "a former part of Lombardy Cemetery". They are both at the same location.
