William Adama Sr. was the father of Joseph Adama and Sam Adama, and a native of Tauron.
During the Tauron Civil War circa 88 BCH (12YR), William and his wife Isabelle were members of the Ha'la'tha resistance. After a member of the Herac militia was killed outside their home (from whom Sam stole a pistol), Heracleides ("Herac") soldiers lead by Kolibri subsequently kill Isabelle and tortured Joseph in their own home. William's son Joseph killed the Herac soldiers and then, at William's request, killed his father using the stolen handgun (CAP: "The Dirteaters"). This act forces Adama's children into orphanage, which lead to their subsequent immigration to Caprica with Ha'la'tha assistance (CAP: "Pilot").
In 69 BCH (31YR), Joseph named his first son after his father (CAP: "Caprica pilot"). After his first son's death in 58 BCH (42YR), Joseph and his second wife name their only child, a son, William (CAP: "Here Be Dragons" and "Apotheosis").
