Biography
Elijah's parents are Edward Harris and Priscilla. His grandparents are Gilliam Harris of Goochland and his wife Susanna.
Edward did not marry a Patricia, but rather a Priscilla. (Patricia as a given name was not used in Colonial times, Patsy was, but it was a nickname for Martha).
This Patricia is not the daughter of Levi Gilliam. His children are given in his Will.
Albemarle Parish Gilliams have been confused with Goochland County, VA Gilliams who removed to Granville County, NC.
