William L. Meeker's death certificate states parents as EDWARD MEEKER & MARY DICKEY. (Copy of DC with photos.)
Even though William's headstone & death certificate say he was born in 1860, he is listed on the 1860 Census that was dated June 29, 1860. His age was listed as 8/12 (8 months old). Since his birth month has always been listed as November, it is logical that he would be considered almost 8 months old when the 1860 census was taken IF he was born in 1859.
William's grandmother: MATILDA NALLS MEEKER STOUT; Find A Grave Memorial #34916231
William's granddaughter, Dorothy (Wm. Emory's daughter), said that he was called "Will".
