William Mastin Mercer

Notes:

The family name is often shown as Musser, a very common name in Smyth Co VA. But since Mercer is used most often for this branch of the family in the census and on his death record, I choose to use that

Died:
death certificate shows family name to be Mercer. Information was Luther Mercer son of William Mastin Musser.
