WILLIAM BLACKLER II

According to the Anglican Cathedral parish records, William Blackler Jr. lived on the Southside, and was listed as a "planter" on the birth certificate of his daughter Eliza. His occupation was not listed on his son, William Harvey Blackler's baptism certificate.

According to Pearl Benson, William was Eliza Blackler's only sibling. Perhaps this is why he named his daughter after her. His son, William Harvey Blackler, obviously inherited his mother, Mary's maiden name. William's birthdate is estimated from the marriage date of his presumed parents. However, it would appear that his wife, the sister of Richard E. Harvey, was a few years older than him.
