Looking for information on my grandfather William Seaborn Crafford Willis born 1872 in Alcorn Co., MS. He was the oldest of George Preston Willis b. 1840 in Jackson Co., AL and wife Sintha Elizabeth Jones b. 1844 in MS. George Preston Willis was the son of William Willis and Jane? Willis. William Willis was born about 1819 in KY according to the 1850 census. By 1860 William was not with Jane and children in Tishomingo Co., MS. On the 1830 Jackson Co., Al (East of ridge) census there was a Henry Willis family. The head of household age 30-40. I believe the next male 20-30 was my William, which would indicate that Henry was his father or older brother. Next door to Henry was a John Willis age 60-70. My William Willis age 20-30 and wife Jane age 15-20 was on the 1840 census for Jackson Co.,Al. Next door to them was Henry Willis family age 40-50 with wife age 40-50 and an older male 60-70 that could be old John Willis. By 1850 William's family had moved to Tippah Co., MS. I don't know what happened to the rest of the family. Does anyone have any information on this family that they would share with me.? Nadene Willis Allen Stratford, OK
