Notes

  • "Willis Green b. 1805 Rutherford Co., NC d. 1871 in Tippah Co. MS ....  I've found some information that suggests he was the son of Henry Green and Nancy Reeves, but nothing that ties it down for sure.  Willis married Polly Smart on 24 Mar 1828 in Rutherford County, North Carolina.  Willis is my 3G-grandfather."
