This William is the second child of William Sr. His middle initial is found in the 1900 Washington County, Virginia census.

A marriage bond was entered in Ashe County, North Carolina on December 21, 1844 for Amanda McGuire and William Trivet (41).

William was married twice, and each woman was named Amanda. There was a marriage bond entered in Ashe County in December, 1844 for Amanda McGuire and William Trivett. But the 1900 Washington County, Virginia census shows William M. and Mandy M. Trivett. It also shows this Amanda was born in November, 1840 and that they had been married 41 years, implying they were married in 1859. This accounts for the 20 year old Amanda in the 1860 census.
