Louisa Francis Willis Morris was the daughter of William Willis and Rhoda Farmer Willis, extensive landowners, who had many slaves. William and his brother, Samuel, owned a major part of the land in the Farmer area. There were several slaves in Pike County with the name of Willis, because they had no name when they arrived in this country. Therefore they took the name of their master that being Willis.
