Research Notes:
Probably one of the younger sons; probable that the older sons secured farms
in the neighborhood of father's home in Paxtang Township, but the younger ones
when grown up went farther away. William apparently cross the river into York
County - no definite knowledge as to William's going to York County, but all
the family traditions have it. [Ref: McCoy STURGEON p172]
There is little to identify William as a brother to the others, or even as a
real personage, except the family traditions and corroborating circumstanes of
many more Sturgeons in that part of York County to which he and Henry are said
to have gone, than can be accounted for through Henry as a progenitor.
