William Howard, b2, possibly had a son, also named William, who married Dorothea Elizabeth Homan (1834 - 1879).
This information comes from a book called "Geldenhuys Genealogy, Descendants of Albert Barends Gildenhuizen", written by Preller Geldenhuys, which includes the Howard family tree. It's mostly a straight copy of the tree from Pamela Barnes' "Through the Chequered Path", but it does include something that Barnes tree does not - a son for William Howard, b2.
https://goo.gl/vsvntm (page 448)
Pamela does not say much about William, b2, except that he died before 1845. There is also no mention of a wife.
The Geldenhuys tree also does not mention a wife, so I'm not certain how accurate it is.
According to the tree, William, b2's son was also named William and he married Dorothea Elizabeth Homan (1834 - 1879), and they had at least 8 children. One of the children's Estate Paper's is on FamilySearch.org and gives his father's name as William Ford Howard, but this might just be a confusion with another of the children who was named William Ford Howard.

Curator Note from Private User (28/5/2017):
1820 Settler - Howard's Party. 15 year old son of William Howard, SV/PROG
Suddenly he has American parents: John Howard and Lavina Howard!
Cutting the relationship to them and putting it back to the SA 1820 settler.
Regarding the 15yr old son who married Dorothea Elizabeth Howard
She appears on geni as marrying a William Ford Howard (William Ford Howard ) who is a son of John Hassall Howard, SV/PROG & Susannah Howard, SM/PROG.
Assuming that William is the son under discussion.
From The Settler handbook -
Howard, William 42, w Elizabeth 39 c. John Henry 17, William 15, Mary Ann 14, Thomas 10, Emily 1 p Thornhill's

John Hassel Howard's son, William, is born 7 Aug 1818 (d 1865) acc to http://www.southafricansettlers.com/?p=978
So he's 2yrs old in 1820
Dorothea Elizabeth Homan Howard is b 07 September 1834 acc to Chris Kruger profile.
So she's 16 yrs younger than John Hassel Howard's son, William (1818 - 1865)
