Think you may have done it !!!
Joseph Willis did come up as born in 1812 in the census records but that could very easily be a mistake if he was baptised in 1812 to parents Thomas and Jane and George was baptised in 1815 to the same parents that has to be the link.
You are definitely a genius. When i tried to find baptism records I couldn't find them.
Thank you so much for your help everyone you are an amazing group of people. Chrissy

Unfortunately George did not marry till very late in life and had no children but was part of my mother's life so I would like to put him and his wife in the tree.
Goerge's Father was Joseph and Louisa's father was George. Confusing isn't it?

We are trying to help, but we don't know the families as you do. Sometimes we need to work around to get answers. It helps if you post all that you know.

I have all that but cannot find out if Joseph was related to Louisa's father George, They are both related to me on my mother's side, Louisa was my Great grandmother and George was my great uncle. Unfortunately I have no information from family paperwork to help on this. I cannot put Uncle George on my tree until I find the connection. It is driving me crazy

LOL,I cannot find a way to find out if the fathers were related as they don't show up on Baptism records and of course the census records don;t go back that far. I don't know how else to find them.

Louisa shows as Louisa, Lora, Sara in various census records.
|

No they did not marry each other. George's father was Joseph Willis, born1812 Essex
Louisa's father was George Willis born 1806. Both fathers were born in Essex I believe

Trying to find a link between Louisa Willis born 1840 Dunmow Essex and George Willis born 1847 Great Waltham Essex. I know they are not brother and sister but suspect they may be cousins. Can anyone help please
