THE BROWN GENEALOGY, Vol. 1, Boston, The Everett Press Company 1907, by Cyrus Henry Brown, page 150.
    His boyhood was spent in his native town, where he attended the public and private schools. After living a short time in Stonington and Putnam, Conn., from the later place he was reported dead (having been critically ill). An obituary notice of great length and fulsome praise was published in the local papers, a copy of which is kept for the true finale. He entered the army in August, 1862, as Sergeant of Co. G. 21st Conn. Vol.; was afterwards promoted to 1st Lieutenant in the same regiment, and served until the close of the war on the staff of General Charles Devens, at the Headquarters of the 3d Division of the 24th A.C., as Acting Engineer, officer, and Chief of Pioneers.
    He was among the first to enter the Confederate Capitol on the morning of the third of April 1865, and the first officer, not a prisoner, to enter Libby Prison. He became a pensioner for disabilities received during the war; but not until over twenty years after its close would he make application, and then only on account of increasing infirmities.
    Nearly his whole life has been spent in his present occupation, contracting painter, during which time he has exceuted many of the largest jobs between New Haven, Conn., and Providence, RI, including the decorating of the interior of many public buildings and private residences. He feels his greatest satisfaction in having lived to perpetuate to this generation, by a short period of service in the army, the patriotism of his grant-grandfather John Stanton, who was born in Stonington, Conn, May 13, 1739, and at his death bore the markes of seventeen bullet-wounds, received in the French and Indian War and the war of the American Revolution.

  See history in Brown file by Edna Foster, Will's daughter. Info on Will's
children and life comes from Mrs. Foster.
  During the Civil War, Will ran away from home at age 17 and joined the Union Navy under the name of Cully Bryant. Because he did not enlist under his real name, he was not eligible for a pension.
  He farmed near Frankfort, Marshall Co., Kans., and later participated in the 1893, Chereokee Strip run from Orlando, Okla., staking out land near Perry, Noble County. Was residing there at time of mother's death in 1908, her obit says.
