Posted on: Amherst County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amherst/645 Surname: Wills ------------------------- My greatgrandfather, Dr. Alexander Frederick Wills married Virginia Norvell in 1858. For many years he was the physician at the Amherst County Poorhouse. He served in the Confederate Army as assistant surgeon of the 18th Virginia Calvalry. His daughter Sallie Barney Wills is my grandmother. Perhaps there is a connection with your family.
