Birthdate and name in question
This article asserts that Billy Claiborne was born in 1860.in Yazoo, MS as William Floyd Claiborne. However, only a single source is cited for this and that link is dead. We have no way to verify this. The corner's report for Billy Claiborne only lists his first name as William. Theres no other useful information. The person that hes reported to be is still alive and living in MS and marries in 1887, so Billy Claiborne cannot be William Floyd. JClayborn (talk) 07:46, 11 December 2021 (UTC)

I removed the birth date, birthplace, and mentions of William Floyd and then added another section explaining why Billy cant be William Floyd. JClayborn (talk) 16:29, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
