We are always proud to share the significant history of our venue. September 25th is the anniversary of William Willis' death, which occurred in 1801. William is buried locally in an unmarked grave, as was the custom of the time for Friends (commonly known as Quakers). He was a skilled bricklayer who migrated to York in 1754 before he designed and constructed his own home in 1762. Also, set into the brick work are glazed headers showing "WW 1762".

The historical prominence of the Willis family and the home's architecture helped the Willis House to be added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
