Biography

Flag of Virginia
Lucy (Steptoe) Blackwell lived in Virginia.

Lucy Steptoe was born about 1720[1] in Lancaster, Virginia to parents John Steptoe and Elizabeth (Eustace) Steptoe. Lucy's date of birth has been reported about five different ways (1713-1720). I selected the aforementioned source because it was based on an article by Stella Pickett Hardy, known to be very well-versed in the Blackwell family.

She married about 1745 in Northumberland, Virginia to Joseph Blackwell.[2]

She died on 26 Apr 1787 in Fauquier County, Virginia & was buried in Blackwell Cemetery. [3]

Birthdate here is about 1716, Lancaster, and described in another post as an estimate. The birthdate on FindAGrave is 1720, in Northuberland. Of course, there is a suggestion that we clear up the discrepancy. Thoughts?

I just did a ged/merge cleanup & now you can see that her marriage date is before her birth date. Since I don't know which is the correct one, I was hoping that you would be able to fix it :) Thanks

Steptoe-59 and Steptoe-3 appear to represent the same person because: same death and married name, birth is an estimate on both profiles, no primary source
