Husband of Mary Fisher Kirkham.  His birth and death dates are confirmed by his death certificate.  The 1864 Monarch of the Sea ship manifest shows William and Mary traveling with Eliza Ann Kirkham, age 3, and Thomas Kirkham, an infant. We do not know if they survived the journey to Utah. His wife's name is included on the list of immigrants who traveled in the 1864 Rawlins Company. His obituary states that he "came to Utah fifty-five years ago," which would have been about 1864.
