Have you tried looking for him in Genesee or Steuben? Allegany County was formed in 1806 from Genesee and added part of Steuben a couple of years later.
I would look at all the Potters in 1790 and 1800 in those counties. Good luck looking for a William Potter though...RI had 19 William Potters in 1790 alone...looking for mine was a challenge!
