William Doggett was the son of the immigrant Rev. Benjamin Doggett. William was born about 1672 in Virginia and died before March 13th, 1717 in Lancaster County.

According to his will William lived in Christ Church Parish and stated that he was weak of body "by unfortunate accident." His will was written in 1710 but not probated for six years, it is not known if he recovered from the injury or was disabled for that time. In either case it appears he was able to father children including a son named Benjamin born after his death on June 24th, 1717. He mentioned his wife in his will several times, but not by name. Some sources state that she was Elizabeth, possibly Elizabeth George. The will also mentioned a daughter who had not yet turned 17 and his son, William, who had not yet turned 21.

After his death an inventory and appraisal of his estate was made during April of 1717 by Richard Stephens, John Davis and Henry Caster. The appraisal listed three slaves by name. Also listed were 15 cattle, five horses, 15 sheep, eight hogs, 15 shoats, two sows and six pigs. Personal items included a jockey's jacket, a gun and a bible.
