Judge William Hairston was the son of Peter and Mattie Martha Baker Hairston and he was born in Abbeville District, South Carolina.

On May 6, 1819, William Hairston married Lovinia Forbush Towers in Gwinnett County, GA (This was the first recorded marriage in the newly formed Gwinnett County, GA.).

On October 13, 1842, William Hairston married Miriam Dupree in Dekalb County, GA (Dekalb was crossed out and Cobb added) by F. Farmer, C.C.O. L.S. (Dekalb County Marriage Book 1840-1848, p. 37).

In the 1840's, Mr. Hairston served as one of the Judges of the Inferior Court in Dekalb County, Georgia along with John N. Balenger, William Johnson, and D.D. Anderson. Perhaps his name was Judge William Hairston instead of William Judge Hairston as was passed down in the family records?
