Annie Willis Green was the wife of Duff Green1730-1776, Duff died in Culpeper around the beginning of the Revolution. They had the following children Thomas Green 1756,Hannah Green 1757, Henry Green 1759, Willis Green 1755,Eleanor Ann Green 1766, and William Green 1770. Annie was the daughter of Henry Willis 1690–1740 and Mildred Lewis 1691–1733.
Duff had been married prior to his marriage to Anne Willis. Upon his death his eldest son, John Green, took the bulk of his property and left little for Anne Willis Green and her four children. With the advice and assistance of her family it was decided that her two sons Willis and Henry made contracts to locate land in Kentucky leaving the eldest William to care for his Mother and sister.
Mother of Willis Green (86584284), who built "Waveland".
I gladly add the following information given to me by Margaret Cobb a distant relative.
Anne was the daughter of Mildred Lewis, one of the three wives of Col. Henry M. Willis. Mildred Lewis was the daughter of Col. John Lewis, III and Elizabeth Warner (1672-1720). Elizabeth Warner Lewis was the daughter of Col. Augustine Warner, II and Mildred Reade. and was the sister of Mildred Warner who married Captain Lawrence Washington, the grandfather of President George Washington. Therefore, Anne's mother was the first cousin of the father of George Washington (Augustine Washington- named after Anne's great-grandfather Augustine Warner.) At the time that Anne and her son(s) moved to Kentucky, Kentucky was still a part of Virginia. That is why Boyle Co., Kentucky shows such strong Virginia influence in its architecture.
