1812: Married in Charlotte County on 12 September 1812 to Patsy S cates, ward of Joseph Oliver. His older brother John Eanes posted Sure ty.

1814: Charlotte County Deed Book 13, page 42 shows William Eanes s old land to C. Hurt on 2 may 1814.

1815: In Charlotte County court, William Eanes was prepared to t estify for Jabez Smith in August 1815 (Charlotte County Order Book 20, [ 1814-1816], p153). Smith was the plaintiff in a case against Christoph er Hurt. The case was dismissed by the plaintiff. This was one of thr ee cases that day involving Smith who was identified as ÙSan assignee o f Edward Eanes.ÙT Suits against John McNichol, Mager Cumber and Avo n Smith were also dismissed.

1820: Pittsylvania County Census reflects four free white males u nder age 10, one free white male from 26 to 45, one free white female b etween 26 and 45 years of age. One person was engaged in Agriculture.

1830: Pittsylvania County Census reflects two male children unde r 5; three male children from 5 to 10 years of age; 2 male children fro m 10 to 15 years of age; one white male from 45 to 50 and one white fem ale from 30 to 40 years of age.

1840: Pittsylvania County. Census identifies these households as p art of the 107th Regiment of Va Militia.

During this period, it is assessed that first wife Patsy Scates died as t he 1850 census names another woman, Martha age 47 as the wife. She wou ld have been too young to be the 40 to 50 year-old woman in the 1840 ce nsus. If Patsy had fatal complications during childbirth, her year of d eath would have been about 1846.
1849-1855 William figures prominently in his father's will and t he settlement of the estate. The executor's report to the County Clerk i ndicate several significant payments prior to the final settlement in 1 855. (Most of the estate had been settled by March 1, 1852.)
