William WILLIS
Elizabeth DAVIS
Mary PULLIAM

WARNING: a few minutes roaming WorldConnect and the LDS Ancestral File tell me the early WILLIS ancestry is totally screwed up (as is often the case with a common surname). In particular, the parentage of this set of children is controversial. Some say their parents are our subjects, William WILLIS & Elizabeth DAVIS; others say their parents are Richard WILLIS & Ann CROWDER. I have no idea which, if either, is correct.

Husband: William WILLIS
Birth: ca. 1732/3, Brunswick Co., VA
Will proved: 10 Apr 1792, Mecklenburg Co., VA

Marriage-1: ca. 1744
If they were born as late as 1732, how could they be married in 1744 and have a child by 1745?

Wife-1 by tradition: Elizabeth DAVIS
Birth: ca. 1732
Death: ca. 1782, VA

Marriage-2: ca. 1780, Pittsylvania Co., VA

Wife-2: Mary PULLIAM
Birth: ca. 1740, VA
Death: bef. 20 Dec 1830, Mecklenburg Co., VA
Other Spouse: m2. 18 Feb 1795, Granville Co., NC, Howel ROSE
Father: Benjamin PULLIAM
Mother: Mary BRUCE

Those who advocate Richard & Ann as the parents of these children, have Mary PULLIAM as the wife of their son, William WILLIS.
