No primary sources for her birth have been found. However, as she, nor any Wiles/Wildes are named in the will of Bartholomew Stovall, is has been determined by advanced researchers, that she is not the child of Bartholomew Stovall.
The only information found is that a derivative record that Margaret Stovall married Luke Wiles sometime between 1560-1900 [1] This connection was formed due to a sale of property from George Stovall of the Parish of St. James sold to "LUKE WILEY my brother-in-law and MARGARET his wife" a tract on the south side of James River. (from records of Cameron Allen, East Orange, New Jersey, which appeared in "The American Genealogist, Vol 38, 1962). Another reference "Historical Southern Families" Vol 1X, by John Bennett Boddie, gives further information. However, this site also indicated that her name may have been LANKFORD/LANGFORD.[2] The Lankford connection is considered that George married Elizabeth Langford. Elizabeth and Margaret were sisters, therefore Margaret's husband would be considered George's brother in law.[3]
Dates for the children attributed to her, would make a birth of 1707, unlikely, as she would have been in her 50's before starting to have children, and her husband would have died prior to many of their births.[4]
