Christine Tilghman was born about 1677 in Virginia Colony, the daughter of Roger Tilghman. She was the sister of Jane Tillman, John Tillman, George Tillman, and Robert Tillman.[1]

Christine married Robert Abernathy on April 3, 1675 in Prince George, Virginia Colony.
It is possible that Robert A. Abernathy came to America as an indenture to Christine’s father, Roger Tilghman/Tilman.

Robert and Sarah had the following children:

1. Robert,
2. Ann,
3. Mary,
4. John,
5. David,
6. Elizabeth,
7. William and

Since Christine is mentioned in her mother's will dated 19 Nov 1716, it is assumed that she died after this date.
Christine died in Colonial Virginia.
