He died on April 26, 1710 inCecil Co., Maryland. William Bouldin II, as we shall call him, was born about 1650 and accompanied his father in their migration up the Chesapeake to Maryland. There he took up land on Scotchman's Creek and Back Creek in Cecil County. He owned land on and near the Sassafras River and Bohemia River, adjacent to that of Augustine Herman. Part of this land was granted him by his father prior to making his will in 1671. The land owned by Augustine Herman numbered 30, 000 acres and ws deeded to his by Lord Baltimore for services renered in the survey of disputed boundaries between Maryland and Delaware. William married Sarh Gold and had four children, Sarah, William, Daniel and John It is possible that he married a second time to Rachel Lewis, but no prjoof exists of any children resulted form the union. However, Two of his grandsons gave the name "Rachel " to thier children suggesting that Rachel may have been the mother of one or more of his children. In a land paten, a Thomas Morrell got 150 acres at Abingdon Parish, Glocester County, Virginia by Lewis Burwell, Benjamin Clements, and Laurance Smith. The acreage was part of the 300 acres given by William Boulding to Racyhel, his then wife for life, and to one Morgan Lewis, his heirs and assigns forever---" by deed dated March 14, 1670. The expression "his then Wife" , implies that he was married more than once and the date of the deed, 1670, would indicate that his son William would have been their child in common. Rachel is known to have been alive as late as 1683 as another deed is recorded showing she sold 150 acres of that land to Thomas Morrell on April 16, 1683. He was married to Sarah Gold in Queen's Co., Maryland
