I am having difficulty finding out more than what follows about Jesse Willis, my great grandfather. As far as I can tell he was the son of Charles{died before 1881] and Elizabeth [born 1827] and was born in1864. He had at least one sister, Jane born 1862. In 1890 he married Ellen Maria HUGHES [born 1861] who had brothers George [b1864] and John [b1879] and sister Fanny [b1865]. Her father was also George about whom I have found nothing. Jesse and Ellen had Lily Blagdon b1895 married Alfred Nettleton Freda Nellie b1897 married Bertie Cook Eric Reynolds b1901 Rita Connie b1902 I will be delighted to hear from anyone who recognises these or can help.
