Keith, Wow@!@! This is too easy! I just put the querie on the internet for the 1st time and wrote to Louisa County for the first time yesterday, and I get a response! And what a response! Where are you from? Are you a descendant of the Willises also? If not, you sure are dedicated to researching them! It told my husband what you wrote about the Willis family, and I commented that your response must have made my blood pressure rise about 20 degrees! He said that I can't handle the pressure on the net--that I should just get off! Could I have a copy of the pictures of LaVisa? I would even like some of Elizabeth. I have a picture of 4 women and I think Elizabeth and LaVisa are 2 of them. Do you have that picture? I also have been given several pictures of relatives that live near Columbus Junction, IA, that I can't identify. Do you have relatives there? Is LaVisa young or old in your pictures? Do you have any pictures of Robert Willis? Have you run into any other descendants of the Willises besides the Virginia guy? I wonder if I could ever write him now. I am anxious to hear what your pictures are like. How did you ever find a descendant related to the photographed? Connie Beck, Taylor Co., IA PS I wonder if there are any Willis descendants now reading our letters? Wish they would speak up!!!!
