From link to William and Mary College Quarterly Historical Magazine, Volume 5. Page 182

William Bernard married, secondly, Sarah Savin, of Maryland (or Sévigné, as some old papers, I am told, seem to show), and had issue one son, 8, William Bernard.

Notes

From http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/schools/wmmary/notes0003.txt

Charles Bennett, second Earl of Tankerville, married Camilla, daughter to
Edward Colville, of Whitehouse, in the bishopric of Durham. (Collins'
Peerage.) Edward Colville was uncle of John and Thomas Colville, who re- moved to Virginia and died in Fairfax county. (Colville wills.) John Colville died about 1755, and, after various gifts to divers persons, he willed his several plantations to his cousin, "the present Earl Tanker- ville", son of the earl first mentioned, and left his brother Thomas to take care of the same. Then after some years Thomas dies, and makes George Washington one of his executors. Sally Savin, wife of William Bernard (p. 183), is named niece of Frances, wife of Thomas Colville, and the will of Frances Colville was proved in Fairfax March 16, 1773. The letters of Washington show relations by no means amicable with the Colville heirs. (QUARTERLY, III., p. 267).
