The Panama was a steamer built in 1898 by William Cramp & Sons Shipbuilders of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania for the New York & Cuba Mail Steamship Co. and originally named Havana. The ship was sold to the Panama Railroad Co. in 1906 when it was renamed The Panama. The ship later served as a USA Transport ship. She struck a rock and sank on April 26, 1929.

On 30 June 1911, William again arrived at New York, this time on board The Colon, a steam-driven cable ship built in 1902 by Wigham Richardson & Company of Low Walker, England for the Telegraph Construction Co, London. She was sold in 1928 and renamed Torodd, then sold on to Nordstrom Jespersen in 1934 and renamed the Sydis. In 1937 she was sold to the Hamburg Whaling Co. and renamed Sudmeer.

On 17 May 1916, William arrived once again in New York, this time on board a cargo ship called The Ancon which built in 1902 by Maryland Steel Co., Sparrows Point, Maryland for the Boston Steam Ship Co. and originally named Shawmut. She was sold to the Panama Railroad Co. in 1909 and renamed Ancon. The ship was renamed Ex-Ancon in 1940. then sold in 1941 to the Permanente Steam Ship Co. and renamed Permanente.  She was sold again in 1946 to A.

William returned to New York on 5 Jun 1918 again on board The Colon. He was still single and gave his address as 527 Josephine Street, Denver, Colorado - the same one he gave in 1916.
