Lucy (Walker) Wilkson married John Prillaman (1754-1842), son of Jacob Prillaman, Sr. (1721-1796), the first Prillaman in Virginia, and his wife Waltpurgelly (or Walburga also referred to as Priscilla).
Lucy is listed in the original marriage bond to John Prillaman of 30 July 1810 as Lucy Wilkson. She is believed to be Lucy (Walker) Wilson. It is possible that she was a widow when she married John, making Wilson (Wilkson) her married name from a previous marriage and Walker her maiden name. This is unknown at this time.
Lucy is remembered in her husband John Prillaman's will of Oct. 19, 1838 as follows:
BEQUESTS:
"To my present wife, Lucy, I give one Negro boy named Nelson, to be absolute property, and to be disposed of as she may think proper. I also give to my said wife Lucy another negro boy named Dick, during her life, and after her death I give the said Dick to my son Abraham.
I likewise give all my stock and perishable property to my wife Lucy and my son Abraham and my Daughter Susannah for their support."
