==Family and early life==

William established himself in Bristol, becoming a member of Bristol corporation and commanding a merchant ship, the ''Mary of Bristol'', with which he carried out trading with Virginia and Barbados. His trading appears to have been in a wide variety of goods, including serge.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sir William Whetstone )〕

This marriage produced two sons and two daughters, his eldest daughter, also named Sarah, married the naval officer Woodes Rogers. William's first wife died in 1698 and was buried in the church of St Nicholas's, Bristol, on 19 October 1698.〔
