John Lilly III, son of John Lilly II and Dorothy Wade of York and Gloucester Counties, Virginia.
John was baptized August 3, 1669 in Charles Parish, York County, Virginia Colony. He was a son of John Lilly and Dorothy Wade.[1]
We do have record of his baptism. August 3, 1669, John Lilly, son of John Lilly and Dorothy [Wade] is baptized in Charles Parish, York County.[2][3]
There is almost no other evidence for this John Lilly III. The records of Gloucester Counties, Virginia did not survive. What little we have has been preserved by family members.
John married about 1694. We do not have record of his wife, though many descendants believe she was Dorothy Billups.
John Lilly III's wife was NOT Jane Chisman, born 21 March 1694/5, daughter of Thomas.[4] Her father's will, which was presented 18 July 1715, names his daughter as "Jane Chisman."[4] Daughters were always referred to as their married names in wills, therefore she could not have been married. See Thomas Chisman to read his will. In addition, she would have been much too young to be the mother of sons born around 1696 and 1700.
Children
Note also: A Robert Lilly is included in this profile, but there is no evidence for him that I can find.
John died young, as he was gone by 1710. In that year, John Lilly (which had to be John IV) asked the court to allow him to choose of Richard Kendall as his guardian.[1]
Note: Information in this post apparently came from the Billups/Lilly Papers
