NOTE: The monument lists William Bumpass' death as Jan 1861. However, his will was signed on 30 Dec 1861, so correct year of death would have been 1862.

William Bumpass married Elizabeth ("Betsy") Billings on 28 Jun 1804, in Davidson County, Tennessee.

William and Betsy Bumpass were re-interred at Mt Olivet on 1 Nov 1870, presumably originally buried on their family farm, on which the family cemetery was viable until the mid-1960s.

Children include those listed in memorial links below, plus Thomas (m. Mary Woodruff), Elizabeth (m. Melvin G Cox), Mary Ann (m. W. M. Grizzard) and John (m. Verlinda Jane Taliafero) Bumpass.
