William A. "Short Bill" Rasco was a son of John Rasco and Lucy (Taylor) Rasco. John Rasco was a son of Captain William Rasco and Rachel (Harrell) Rasco.
"Long Bill" Rasco and "Short Bill" Rasco were first cousins as they shared the same grandparents _ Captain William Rasco and Rachel (Harrell) Rasco.
What may have been confusing is that "Long Bill" Rasco married his first cousin Margaret Elizabeth Rasco who was a sister of "Short Bill" Rasco.
"Short Bill" Rasco was first married to Mary Rasco a daughter of William Rasco 2nd and Delilah (Lindsay) Rasco.
Mary died in Texas in 1860 and "Short Bill" Rasco married Jemima D. Hyden.
If you have different information please let me know.
