Hi James: I'm interested in your William L Mills. My mother's family are descendants of David Mills Of Stoddard Co., and his descendants, who lived and still live in Bollinger Co.and Madison Co.. I have no information on your William Mills. Do you know anything about him and his ancestors and descendants. I'm hoping he might be related to my David Mills. Sorry I can't help you with any of the rest of your family.
