I have found this most interesting threat. In 1826 my 6x Great grandad died having been the licencee for the Talbot Inn. His name was John Wallis and wife Mary Wallis. From the census I think Mary was still here in 1841 with their grandson Henry Wallis (baptised name was German Henry). In John's Will he left all estates and property to Mary and his children. This is as far as I am only to go back at the moment. John was born about 1776 in Derby. From here all my grandad have own beer houses and pubs up to 1940's. Would be interesting to know if the Williss family in this thread is a name change, or where theye came from.
