William M. or W. Wayson ???

I am now wondering if I have my great-great grandfather's correct name.  When I first located his and Ada Dean's marriage record, it was a transcription of the original.  Whoever transcribed it wrote M. as the middle initial.  Now that I have found the original, it looks like that "M" just might be a "W".  At least, it gives me something else to go on since I haven't been able to locate him anywhere prior to his marriage.  This record also gives his birth place as Greenup County, Kentucky so I might be getting closer!  

Click on the picture, take a look for yourself, and let me know what your opinion of that middle initial is.  The record is on Line 12.
