According to baptism record her father may have been Henry Luke Henry Luke (abt.1704-1759) not Charles? Mother would be Mary (Davie) Luke (bef.1716-)

If Elizabeth's mother was born and died in England, how was Elizabeth born in Virginia? Need better sources - either she was born in England or her parents came to Virginia or - wrong parents.

I think I found marriage for parents Charles and Elizabeth in 1735 - after Elizabeth was born. More evidence these are incorrect or birth place is wrong.

Several records for Elizabeth Luke babtism in Illogan, Cornwall, England around 1734
