I'd agree with Wm = William.  And father's occupation Web = Webster.

Hi all,
I may be a bit late to the conversation...
I'm in the process of piecing together my family tree and now know my great great great (I think) grandfather was John Bentley b. 7 Jan 1777. I was wondering if any of you may be related and if you had more information dating further back. Or any more information on his descendants.
Thanks,
