William Ferdinand Etier was the son of Pierre "Peter" Etier and Jane Roberts. He was born 1825-1826 in Caldwell Parish, Louisana.
According to the marriage records for Louisana, William married Mrs. Mourrin/Mournin Todd on Apr 8, 1846 in Caldwell Parish, Louisana. They had 6 known children.
William F. 's 2nd marriage was to Jane Minerva Reed Cutbirth in 1865. William F and Jane Minerva Reed had three children born to this union. She was the widow of David Danial Cutbirth who was killed in the Civil War. David Daniel Cutbirth moved his family to Hunt Co., Texas in 1862 before he enlisted in the Barnet's Texas Sharpshooter. The Cutbirth family lived next door to William Ferninand while David Daniel Cutbirth went to war.
