The Wills Family

First perhaps as punishment and then to seek their fortune members of the Wills families of England have emigrated to virtually all the corners of the world. In the 19th century members from different branches of the Lustleigh Wills family of Devon are known to have gone to Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the USA and even to St Helena. We hope this site will help to find more lost cousins from many more Wills families.
