Hello Betty, I was just wondering if the Willis Austin you mention is the same man who was born in MS in 1818, oldest son of Richard and Joannah Ferguson Austin, married Louise Henderson 02/15/1844. If so, please contact me, as that is all the information I have on Willis, who is my 2nd great-granduncle. I would like to know more about him and his descendants. Regards, Bill Austin Watson, Livingston Par., LA
