He entered that partnership on February 1, 1914, joining him in the New and Secondhand Furniture business in the familiar store at 1110 - G Avenue. Shortly after this, on April 3, 1914, he formed another partnership, this one with his mother-in-law, Laura Ann Mecham, in owning two pieces of property on 8th Street. One was the Watts Hotel, No 516, and the other "the Bowers Property", at No 522. Page 105 has a picture of the outside of the store and another of the inside of the store with Joseph and William pictured. [very dark]. • He owned land Document # 2359 on 16 Nov 1891 in Conejos Co, CO. 2 160 acres SE, 5/, 33-N, 9-E, No, New Mexico PM, CO, Conejos • He owned land Document # 1127 on 3 Jul 1897 in Conejos Co, CO. 2 160 acres SW, 4/, 33-N, 9-E, No, New Mexico PM, CO, Conejos • He was Mormon Missionaries on 24 Jul 1932. W.C. Beecroft & John A. Bigelow Part-time Missionaries • He worked as a Dissolution of partnership with Joseph P Lewis on 15 Apr 1935 in Douglas, Cochise Co, AZ. ... Joseph was not able to go to Taylor for the funeral. He was detained in Douglas because of the illness of his partner, William C. Beecroft. He had been ill for a number of months, so sick that he had been unable to come into the store, leaving its operation entirely in Joseph's hands. Finally, on April 15, 1935, he and Joseph talked the matter over and decided that it would be best for them to dissolve their partnership. In doing so, Beecroft asked that his share be sold to his son-in-law, C. W. Harrell, who would come into the concern as a full partner. Thus, after twenty-five years of doing business together, Joseph and William C. Beecroft had ended their association in the "New and Second Hand Furniture" store at 1110 G Avenue. Their parting must have been a sad affair, for they had been more than business partners. Through all of these years they had been close friends and fellow members of the Douglas Branch. While Joseph had been president, William Beecroft had been a counselor; thus, they had had many opportunities to learn to know and respect each other as they worked together in this sweet, spiritual responsibility. William married Nancy Isadora Valentine on 8 Jan 1893 in Manassa, Conejos, CO. (Nancy Isadora Valentine was born on 10 Nov 1870 in Georges Camp, Ellisville, Jones, MS,3 died on 22 Feb 1931 in Douglas, Cochise Co, AZ and was buried on 24 Feb 1931 in Douglas Cemetery, Cochise Co, AZ.)
