William gives his birth year as 1849 before he married and 1851 after he married. This may simply be because his wife was born in 1856 and he wished to appear nearer to her age.
From The Cheshire Observer of 4 October 1879: "SECOND COURT - THE DRUNKARDS' LIST ...William Crimes, Joseph Crimes and George Crimes were charged with being drunk and disorderly at Crowton on the 28th August. William and George were each fined 5s. and 8s. 6d. costs, and the summons against Joseph was dismissed."
The 1918 Q2 Chester death index record is assigned to this William based in elimination. The age at death given by the informant implies a birth year of 1851 which, though wrong, is consistent with William's own declarations. Perhaps William died in a hospital or other institution near Chester.
