Given name has also been reported to be ''''William John'''.

and three das., viz.
* ANNE,
* JANE, and
* ELIZABETH, who m. Symon Horsepool, of London."
(http://www.stirnet.com/genie/data/british/ss4as/smith01.php), which is based on:
* the "Smythe of Strangford and Penshurst" section in the Addendum of the 1883 edition of "Genealogical History of the Dormant, Abeyant, Forfeited and Extinct Peerages of the British Empire"
* the "Smith" section of the 1619 Visitation to Kent
* the "Strangford" section of "The Complete Peerage" (AKA "A History of the House of Lords and all its Members from the Earliest Times")
...does not mention this William.

'''Notes for William Smith :'''Master William Smith, the mercer, was called alderman (as distinct from the haberdasher), an office next below Bailiff (Mayor). As early as 1548, he owned the "New House" at 34 High St (which still stood in 1974). About that time he was widowed with a young daughter and he remarried in 1551. He was a member of the Corporation in the royal charter given to Stratford on Avon in 1553. He was also in 1553 was the Bridge Warden, maintaining the bridge over the Avon. Sometime in 1577, he moved to Worcester, leaving his son John in the New House. He is buried in Worcester Cathedral. 454

William, "the elder" and eldest son, b. ca. 1553 and so named in the wills of his mother and his uncle, the Bishop.
* iii. Richard, graduated by Christ Church, Oxford in 1570; Vicar of Warcombe, Isle of Wight. He had a son William. (See Compton Reade's Smith Family, 1902, Bristol, for descendants of William.}

[AS. aldormon, ealdorman; ealdor an elder + man. See Elder,
n.]
1. A senior or superior; a person of rank or dignity. [Obs.]
Note: The title was applied, among the Anglo-Saxons, to
princes, dukes, earls, senators, and presiding
magistrates; also to archbishops and bishops, implying
superior wisdom or authority. Thus Ethelstan, duke of
the East-Anglians, was called Alderman of all England;
and there were aldermen of cities, counties, and
castles, who had jurisdiction within their respective
districts.
3. One of a board or body of municipal officers next in order
to the mayor and having a legislative function. They may,
in some cases, individually exercise some magisterial and
administrative functions.
