    3. My interest in York Co. is VERY early -- before 1700. What I would really love to discover is any early Quaker records, if anyone knows where any might be found. My York Co. interest is primarily Mary (Maulson) Lilly Chisman, who immigrated with her parents (Edward and Margaret Maulson) and her first husband, John Lilly into Virginia before 1636. Mary's second husband was Capt. Edmund Chisman. Because the Chisman family was prominent, Mary is often found in old Wm & Mary Quarterly articles, but I can find very little about her Lilly family. Her daughter Mary Lilly m. Robert Reade. I am hoping to learn more about her son John. I am particularly interested in learning whether these Lilly children were born in Virginia or in England. Also in learning where in England this family lived. I also need proof that she was the mother of all of Edmund Chisman's children. Is anyone aware of any early resources other than court and patent records that pertain to these families? They lived in Gloucester Co. after it was formed, in the part that today is Mathews Co. I have access to Polly M. Cary's "Colonial Gloucester" books and have already searched the York record index at Williamsburg. What have I missed? Thanks, Libbie Griffin
