This is what I sent on after checking some other files. I only know the
differences in the Christopher line. Elizabeth Tillman who wrote the new
Tillman book wrote me and mailed me a copy of the descent she believes is
the correct one. The only way we will know for sure is if the Bible is found
or records left from Christoper Tilghmans the immigrants descendants. I have
learned in doing this to never believe what someone else has written verbatim
as all books have errors. I am sure her's will be no exception.
Thanks Dottie

hello,
Saw where you are still saying that Christopher Tilghman who came to this
country in the 1600s was a child of Christopher Tilghman and Anna Sanders.
There is a new Tillman Book out by Elizabeth Tillman that is refuting this
line. She said that in that time frame that there were 4 known Christophers
in England , and that Anna Sanders and Christopher never had any children of
their own. She is saying that the immigrant Christopher was a son of
Nicholas the brother to above Christopher and Anna. The only way to prove
this would be to find the bible that the immigrant Tilghman brought over with
him. If anyone knows how to get ahold of the publishing company so they can
check with the family of Stephen F Tillman who wrote the book on the family
and see where he got his references it may answers this question.
If you have any ideas would love to hear them.
Dottie
