It is possible that William was not born in Hector, but a good guess. There are several variant spellings of Houghtailing to be found. Also, this photo might not be of Willie, but it is a strong hunch.
Sometime around 1897 William moved to Albany and eventually enlisted in to the army just before the Spanish-American War. He reƫnlisted in 1900 and moved to Detroit, Michigan.
Granny never mentioned having a brother, adopted or otherwise. Curious he was never mentioned, at all.
