"(23) "Mr. Willis" Thomas Wyllys, a "sidsman" of Lancaster Parish in Virginia in 1657. There is recorded in Lancaster 1 Oct 1667 from Thomas Wyllys, of Lancaster, and Mary, his "now wife" to Abraham Weekes. There is in Middlesex County (formerly a part of Lancaster)a marriage contract dated 6 Feb 1670 between Mary Willis, widow and Mathew Bentley, shoemaker, making provision in favor of her children, Richard, John and Eleanor Willis. This Mary Willis was doubtless the widow of Thomas Willis. Her second husband, Mathew Bentlye, was one of the letters of the adherents of Nathaniel Bacon in Middlesex and vicinity. At Middlesex Court February, 1677, Matthew Bentley was summoned to answer the charge that during the late rebellion, when in command of forty or fifty men-in-arms at Major Lewis' plantation, in New Kent, he killed three hogs and four sheep, use a great deal of corn and took meal for the whole rebel army at Major Pate's. in this case Bentley took an appeal to the General Court. On July 23rd, Col. Wormeley, of Middlesex, sued Matthew Bentley and others for trespass and for taking from him in October, 1676, twelve beeves, forty sheep, twelve bushels of salt, etc &c. He obtained judgment for 435 lbs. ... " [Ref: Virginia Tax Records, Tithables of Lancaster Co., Virginia 1654, p. 248]
