William Linville was born in 1843 at Livingston County, MO. He died on 6 November 1863; William was killed as he got out of Confederate Army. There are two possible scenarios on his death.
The family version indicated that he and his brother James were killed by "bushwhackers". They were caught hiding in a tree.
Another version from newspaper articles: "William Linville was hanged in St. Louis at noon Nov. 6, 1863 near Patee House. He was only 19 and just out of the Confederate Army when he was convicted before Judge Silas Woodson (who earlier had been governor of Missouri - note Judge Woodson was a possible political enemy of William Linville, Sr.) Linville was charged with killing George Henry in Andrew County. The state charged he was member of Joe Hart's gang of bushwhackers who had been carrying on a reign of terror. Linville denied his guilt to the last. He rode in a carriage to his execution, his companion being the Rev. Mr. Dulin, his spiritual adviser and a jailer. Behind them was an express wagon bearing his coffin. He told the huge crowd that he was dying innocent, that the witnesses had been mistaken. They handed him a glove and told him to drop it when he was ready. He did. The body was taken to Chillicothe for burial. Some estimate that as many as 8,000 covered the hills to watch the execution."
