In 1900 he and his parents and two siblings lived in a house they were renting in Sigourney, IA. His father worked as a stock buyer and William as a lumberman.

In 1910 he lived with his first cousin Milton P Minteer, his wife, and a servant, 16-year-old Louise Kunze, in a house they owned, mortgage free, at 3833 South Forest Avenue (now Doctor Martin Luther King Drive) in Chicago, IL. Milton worked as a livestock dealer and he as a livestock buyer.

In 1920 he and his wife and their son lived in an apartment they were renting at 6340 Kenwood Avenue in Chicago. He worked as a broker in the stock yards.

In 1930 he, Faye, their three children, and a maid, 31-year-old Elizabeth McMillan, lived in a house they owned at 6548 Kimbark Avenue in Chicago. Their home was valued at $18,000 and they did have a radio. He worked as a livestock broker.

In 1940 he and his wife and their three children lived in probably the same house, although the house number was given as 6550. (There was no 6548 that year, nor had there been a 6550 in 1930.) Their home was valued at only $5000 after the Great Depression. He worked as a livestock broker in the stockyards. William worked for a daily newspaper providing personal service (assumed to be home delivery), with an income in 1939 of $308 for 26 weeks of work.
