Hi There,
My grandmother was from Fogo but she was a Wells. Do you reconize the Wells name from Fogo?

Hi Sharon: Sorry for the delay but I was away. Yes, the name Wells is from Fogo. I have seen it on both web sites. I have no idea if they are related to the Willis family though.

Hi Marilyn:
Welcome to the family! My husband's great-grandfather was Elijah Willis, brother to Rebecca and son of Charles. I would Love to communicate with you off-line to share what we know. I have been lucky to pick up a great deal of information on Rebecca's family. My husband & I visited Fogo this past June and loved it. We met three Willis' cousins, all from different families.

Hi Karen:
Jimmy & I are headed back to Fogo on July 10. We only have a few days but hope to explore more and meet some more people. If I pick up any information, I'll let you know.
If there are any Fogo researchers out there, we'd love to meet you!
