Not sure how you narrow it down but father's & / or mother's name used for William's children could be a clue.
Also (I'm no Waterford expert) Clonmel may be more Waterford than Trinity Without?
Interesting address for the last one - a tough start to life so joining the army at 14 may have been more likely for him?
