Hello: I am working on the Willis line in Caroline/Dorchester/Talbot county. I have only one reference to Aaron Willis in Dorchester Co. Dorchester Land Records Liber HD-23, Folio 522 Bill of Sale Date of Record 22 Oct. 1806 Aaron Willis to William Wheatley for sum of $39.56 - household goods and 1 cow. And then Aaron named in James will. I have no other references to Aaron nor do I know where James fits. Do not think that Joseph mentioned in Caroline land records is your Joseph.
