William was the third child of Buel and Nancy (Brown) Sherman. He traveled to Dundee Township with his parents before August 26, 1847, when his father bought land in Section 31, Dundee Township, Kane, Illinois. He was about 18 years old when he died.

Though his tombstone is located at Dundee Township Cemetery West, the lot was not purchased until 30 years after his death. Where was William originally buried? Was he buried at Schroeder Cemetery, where his uncles, Stanley and Marshall, had cemetery lots assigned to them? Were his remains moved with his tombstone?
