William Hitchcock IV was born on 26 July 1735. He was the son of William Hitchcock III and Susan Slade.
I have chosen not to show both Williams in this generation without more proof that two brothers born two years apart were both named William and that the second one carried the suffix IV. No spouses are given for either William, no children, no dates of death.
