Biographical Info*28 August 1747William traveled to Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts Bay Province (New England), around 1737 to tutor the son of a Boston gentleman.

He was ordained by a council of which the Reverend Benjamin Colman was a leading member, and served a happy pastorate for about nine years. He then accepted the invitation of Trinity (Episcopal) Parish, leaving suddenly for England where he was ordained a second time by the Bishop of Gloucester. He returned to Boston and became the rector of Trinity Parish on 28 August 1747, remaining in that position until his death. Many testimonials are on record to his high character and excellent abilities. He published "The Apostles neither imposters nor enthusiasts" in 1742, and a sermon on the death of Thomas Greene in 1763.2,4
