More evidence is needed.

Answer 1

Most of the sources on the profile are ‘family trees’ so not necessarily primary sources. Where have you looked so far for new sources, so we don’t cover the same work, thanks?

I explored FamilySearch to locate vital records which would show that Benjamin Gilliam and Hannah Savage had a daughter named Elizabeth. I was not successful.

Answer 2

 Familysearch.org (FS) has the following information available which I hope may be of use

Elizabeth Gilliam FS ID L6R2-Q9P born 1667 St. Peter's Parish, New Kent, Virginia, British Colonial America – died 1777 United States

Father: Benjamin Gilliam FS ID LHGH-XCF born about 1634 Bicester, Cherwell, Oxfordshire, England, United Kingdom – christened 8 June 1634 Bicester, Cherwell, Oxfordshire, England, United Kingdom – died 13 June 1685 Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts Bay, British Colonial America

Mother: Hannah Savage FS ID L52D-3VX born 28 June 1643 Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States – christened 2 July 1643 First Church, Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States – died 22 July 1730 Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States

Benjamin & Hannah were married 26 October 1660 Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States

Elizabeth Gilliam was 4^th eldest of 10 children 3 boys & 7 girls which included Elizabeth

 

I suggest you go to Familysearch.org to check ALL the information that they have available 

NOTE: I am passing this on for your information – I can only be guided by what is on that site, correct or not. Sources may/may not be available

I see Hannah's father had a lookalike in Virginia

Wonder if they were related.

I'm going to have to hire a professional genealogist to figure out whether Elizabeth is the daughter of Hannah Savage.
