Individual Details

I very much doubt that Lillie was nee Chapman. She seems to be simply living with a Chapman family as housekeeper in 1880. The Chapmans seem to have been a household of adult siblings.

Since she likely was not a Chapman, I looked for other Lillie's in Fauquier Co in 1870 - in the Cedar Run area, there was only one Lillie of anywhere near the proper age. She was Lillie Peters, age 13, in the household of Benjamin & Susan A. Peters.
However, in Warren Co, there was a Lillie - nee Holtclaw - who was age 16. I wonder if the child Wellington Clayton was a baseborn child with his mother's surname - and William Baldwin Holtzclaw should not even be in this picture.

A young Geo. Chapman, age 26 and wife Alma, lived in the next household.

In 1880, Alexander Holtzclaw was in Clarke Co VA - and Sarah, age 31, was his wife.
