Notes on transcription

• The entry is clear, with no substantial transcription uncertainty. This gives William an approximate birth year of 1808–1809.
• His residence in Lezayre and the timing of his death make him a plausible candidate for Ann Hodgson's first husband — the William Quayle named as Catherine Ann's father in her 1845 baptism — but the burial entry itself does not state his occupation, marital status or family relationships, so it cannot establish that identification by itself.
