I am confused on this person. A copy of his will says there was another WIlliam Wadsworth that acted on his behalf as executor. William Watson Wadsworth, lived during the same time and possibly also had a son Daniel Wadsworth. My lineage is through William HIram Wadsworth (1821-1894, GA, USA) but I cannot be for sure that William Hiram's father was a Daniel Wadsworth (1810-1876), or which Daniel he was. A Daniel Wadsworth was born of William Watson Wadsworth, in NC, then ended up in AL. Legend is of a Daniel Wadsworth, same time same location who was in the Yazoo land fraud in GA and then went west. Are they the same? If so, is William Watson Wadsworth the same as William John Wadsworth, or brothers?

Any historical help is appreciated...I feel Ms. Fry's book has possibly led many of us astray on this line.
