Israel Kern, among others, patented portions of William's Warrant.  At the time Israel Kern patented his portion of William's Warrant in October 1873, William's Warrant was located in Washington Township, Lehigh County.   This map shows how close William's Warrant was to the Lehigh River.

William's land was right across the river from #3 Conrad's land and across the river and a little south of the Patent of William Best Sr.
