William was named for his paternal uncle, William, and his father's business associate, with the surname of Craig. The 1852 California State census says William was 1, so he may have been born in 1851. In Sept of 1852, William's father, Tom, wrote a letter to his brother Alex, stating he had purchased land and was going to build a house in Benicia. Therefore, William is most likely buried in the Benicia City Cemetery in an unmarked grave.
