{"value"=>"<p>This series consists of materials acquired and generated by George Willis in the course of his genealogical research. Included are his correspondence, research notes, copies of sources and documents, and family papers he collected.</p> <p>As the majority of the research relates to Henry Willis and the Willis line, those folders are listed first, and are arranged alphabetically by first name. As this line includes several individuals named William Willis, birth and death dates are included in parentheses next to those names in the folder titles. All other folders are arranged alphabetically by family name. Many of the folders contain a range of materials that are not confined to a strict chronological or topical order, so the inclusive dates should be considered estimates.</p>"}
