Bill is remembered as a excellent engineer and a kind and generous man. He pointed out cabling under Barton's Arch Railway Bridge, though it is unclear if this was because it was for destruction or could be used for communication. He worked as an engineer in the same building used by Larkham Scrap Metal Merchants, so likely knew George Markham well
