The William referenced in the inscription as the husband of Margaret Magill (i.e. Margaret Magill Vallance nee Dunscomb) is the William in this memorial, died. 1863.
Note there are many presumed errors on the inscription, which are addressed on each person's memorial. It is likely that the "Eileen Margaret" noted in the inscription is actually a girl named "Margaret Ellen."
