William Randolph's daughter Elizabeth married Richard Bland and died 1720.

See comments on the profile for William Randolph-94.

Without primary proof to show they (or just William) had another daughter named Elizabeth, this profile needs to be detached as daughter of Randolph-94 and his wife Mary Isham-16.
