You seemed to have missed the point of my post. I concur that the Willis
surname was fairly common in colonial Virginia. However, the James database
shows the John Willis who died in July 1715 as the son of Thomas Willis. The
will of John Willis, proved in 1688 in Middlesex Co., VA, clearly shows that
that is incorrect.
