Plus numerous entires for children of John & Sarah, many not plausible given Sarah's age. Nor is a 1906 death date for John plausible. It looks like two John & Sarah WILLIS'es are being mixed up.

2a. Census Index: U.S. Selected Counties, 1830 (Broderbund CD-315): there are five John WILLISes in Indiana, but none in Sullivan Co.; there are seven John WILLISes in Virginia, but none in Pittsylvania Co.; there are four John WILLISes in KY, with one in Madison Co. and none in Jessamine Co.

These data indicate:

No., Race, Gender Age Class Therefore Born Individuals Inferred

1 white male 4 or under 1825-1830 = John (b. 1827/8)

1 white male 5-9 1820-1825 = Son A (b. 1825)

1 white male 20-29 1800-1810 = ?

1 white male 30-39 1790-1800 = John A.? (b. 1800)

2 white females 4 or under 1825-1830 = ?

1 white female 5-9 1820-1825 = ?

1 white female 15-19 1810-1815 = ?

1 white female 20-29 1800-1810 = Sarah? (b. 1810/11)

2 male slaves 9 or under 1820-1830 = names unknown

1 female slave 10-23 1806-1820 = name unknown

Based on their ages, John & Sarah could be either the younger or the older adult couple in this household; however, as John is head-of-household, I will take them to be the older couple, which means some younger couple is living with them. If the young girls are Sarah's children, they all three died before 1840, which makes me think at least one or two of them are the children of the other couple.
