He prepared at Cutler School in New York and graduated from the 1895 class of Yale. He grew up in the lap of Gilded Age luxury destined to assume the leadership of W & J Sloane, a “house furnishing” company his grandfather started originally as a carpet warehouse in 1843 in New York City. William became president of W & J Sloane in January of 1906." He died in 1922. His estate eventually was donated by his daughter to Westchester county.
