We must be distantly related. My g-g-g-grandfather was George Villars; William D. Villars was one of his brothers. They were both Methodist ministers (there were 18 Methodist ministers within only 3 generations!); their parents were James Villars and Rebecca Davidson. Wm. was born August 31, 1802. He married Ruth Whitaker/Whittaker on February 14, 1821. Ruth was born on March 2, 1805. They are listed on the 1860 census for Vermilion County, IL (a lot of the family moved there from OH and PA). Their children were Rachel, James, Oliver, Phebe/Phoebe, Rebecca, Joseph Eli, Jane Frances, Mary Elizabeth, John William, and Rhoda. I have some info on the children. E-mail me at [email protected]
