Son of Solomon Francis Searll and Ellen Frances Morse.
Husband of Grace Elmyra Tourtellotte, whom he married on 7 June 1899 in Providence, Rhode Island. It was her second marriage, having previously been divorced. It was his first marriage.
With her, he had three children. Only one of them surviving to adulthood. By about 1915 he and Grace had divorced.
His children with Grace:
Mabel Grace (Searll) Mahon
William Henry Searll Jr
Pearl Iola Searll
His second wife was Margaret Frances McElroy, whom he married on 22 August 1918 in Attleboro, Massachusetts. I have not found any children of theirs in any Census records.
An important note is that his full biological younger sister Grace Frances Searll married the half brother of Grace Elmyra Tourtellotte, George Albert Tourtellotte, making their children essentially double cousins to each other.
He testified in the divorce case of his younger sister, Grace Frances (Searll) Tourtellotte vs George Albert Tourtellotte. In this case he references Grace as his younger sister, as well as his wife (Grace Elmyra Tourtellotte Searll) being the half-sister to Grace's husband, George Albert Tourtellotte.

The office of North Burial Grounds informed me that he was interred on 11 July 1960, with the owner of the grave being Margaret Searll (his wife at time of passing). The cemetery office was extremely kind and found his stone when I was unable to locate it.
