Description

This group is identified as descended from Henry Willis of Long Island, New York. He was born in 1628 in Warminster, Wiltshire, England. Persecuted because of his Quaker religion, he immigrated to Long Island in 1674.

  • His elder son William remained in Long Island.
  • His younger son John settled in Pennsylvania, and founded a number of Willis lineages in
Pennsylvania (York County),
Virginia (Franklin County),
Kentucky (Mercer County),
Ohio,
Missouri (Monroe County),
and elsewhere.
