Robert Willis Family Files

The late Robert Willis’ wife donated The Willis Family Files.

Both she and Robert's wishes were that his research was to be retained by the Hamner Room and The Lawrence Register website to help other Willis family members and their related lines.

Oma Griffith took the enormous task of typing these notebooks into her computer and then graciously gave us her permission to place these files on our website.

If anyone would like copies of these records, we ask that you obtain permission from The Lawrence Register before doing so. We also ask that these records not be copied for any one person's monetary gain, but to use these records for your individual research. If you have any additional questions, please leave your comments below. - Martha
