Birthdate is calculated from headstone information.
Another source has his birthdate at 28 August 1790.
There is the assumption out there that William's middle name is Thomas. The only record indicating that is a temporary marker placed at the base of his stone from around the 1970's-1980's range that is written in black marker: W. Thos. Wakefield, 1790-1870, War of 1812. It is unclear who put this marker at his gravesite. Research indicates this might have occured at the time when the Appanoose County Historical/Genealogy society attempted to document all of the war veterans in the county. In the Appanoose County transcription for Concord cemetery which was transcribed in 1986-1989 the entry is listed as a footstone, which is not correct. Please use caution when citing William Wakefield's middle name as Thomas.
