Last Edited21 Jan 2012
     He was born circa 1830 at Scotland.1 William married Sarah Renwick on 26 November 1858 at Northumberland and Durham County, Ontario, Canada, Note that this transcription gives her father's name as Robert rather than Herbert. This may not be the correct marriage for Sarah daughter daughter of Herbert Renwick.

On Page 34 of Clarke Township, Eastern section : its place, people and events the author writes:
... Rev. Mr. Young who succeeded Dr. Ormiston still maintained friendly relations with the Congregation. (Rev. Young's wife was Miss Renwick an aunt of Mrs. William Lockhart of Newcastle.)

If this marriage is correct, then Sarah was a great-aunt of William Lockhart.1,3
