He is first employed as a driver of a steam train and as this is also the time that Fred Shepherd is also employed in this area as a train driver we can guess that this is how the families met.1 He married Susan Price in 1899; William had a partner at this time called Susan Price They never married as Mary Ellen was alive somewhere in U.K. He and Susan had three children all of who'm died at birth.
