  • Notes 
    • There is a second James Willis of a similar age. The other one was baptised in 1825, son of William and Elizabeth. Probably it is William and Elizabeth's son who was the James "of Cadland Quay" that died in 1844, as his father, William, was living in Quay Cottage in 1841 and in Cadland 1851 and '61, whereas John and Susan were from Ower. This means John and Susan's son James must have married Elizabeth and moved to Southampton. The age of the James in Southampton is more consistent with an 1827 birth than an 1825 birth.
