Translation.

There may have been at least one more child by the name ofWilliam either through a second marriage or some other type of relationship.  If so, William changed the spelling of his last name to Imbler and may have been caught up in the same family dispute that John Imler's sons were when they changed their name to Embler/Imbler.  A William Imbler was recorded to have been born 1770 in Rowen Co., N.C. to a Lodowick Imbler.  Imbler is a spelling change of the name Imler and is documented via other family units of the original American spelling of Imler.  Very likely Ludwig and Lodowick are the same person and what remains in question was William the son of Magdalena or of a second spouse.

If William Imler/Imbler were the issue of the marriage between Ludwig and Magdalena he was dis-inherited from his father's will.  His absence from the will doesn't disconnect him from a relationship with Ludwig Imler.   There is sufficient preliminary information from more than one family unit that is descendant from William that links him with Ludwig Imler, therefore, until there is information to dispute this relationship claim- - -for record purposes these descendants of William Imbler will be attached to this Ludwig Imler line.
