William Rasmussen was the first born to Danish Immigrants August and Ane Rasmussen.
He died in 1859. He was the first Dane from the Greenville Settlement to be buried in a corner of August's property. Because August swore that this grave never should be moved, this plot later became a public graveyard known as the "Little Denmark Cemetery." Also called "Big Dane Settlement" Cem.
