Tillman/Tilghman Virginia/Madison County, Ohio

Surnames: Tillman/Tilghman/Thomas
Putting this out there again. My ancestor was Henry Tillman (sometimes Tilghman) b. about 1805 Virginia. He married in 1825 Elizabeth Thomas in Jefferson Co. Virginia (now West Virginia) They moved to Madison County, Ohio probably in 1830's and Henry died in 1854.
Henry had a sister named Elizabeth who was b. about 1807 and married Leonard Thomas in 1825 in Jefferson, Va and that family moved to Madison Co. Ohio as well. There is also a 2nd possible sister Eveline Tillman who married Jacob Thomas. I believe Eveline was born about 1813-1815 in Virginia and lived in Madison Co. Ohio.

Elizabeth Tillman Thomas has her parents listed as being born in Virginia. When she died her parents were listed as David/Daniel Tillman and Polly Coleman but haven't found further evidence of this. I found an item on an Eveline Tilman in an 1824 paper and this girl was 9 years old, about the right age. This was Loudoun Co. Virginia but again, no further information was found on Eveline or her parents.

If there is anyone that might have any information on this Tillman family please contact me. Thanks!
