    GUESS at possible parent based on her surname of "Bridvill" and the fact that she named one son Lewis B and her first son, Jacob Frederick, named one son Lewis Bridwell Alspach. Found a Lewis Bridwell in Stafford Co., VA in 1820 with female children: 1 <5; 3 5-10. Also, no Brivill's in VA in 1810 or 1820.

    Notice.
    Pursuant to the last will and testament of William Taylor, deceased, of
    Stafford county, I shall on the 2d Monday in August next, at Stafford
    Courthouse, that being court day, if fair, if not, the next fair day, expose
    to sale, a tract of land, on the Beaver Dam run of Aquia, containing 500 acres
    more or less, being the land on which he resided, and adjoining the lands of
    Lewis Bridwell, Mr. George, Mrs. Ford, and others. This land is in fine
    condition for cultivation, with a good frame dwelling house with 4 rooms
    below, and an excellent orchard of between 250 and 300 bearing apple trees.
    This land is well watered, and remarkable for its healthy situation and in
    curing many diseases. I will allow a credit of 12 months for the purchase
    money, upon the purchasers giving bond and good security to bear interest from
    the date if not punctually paid, and a lien on the land. Possession will be
    given on the 1st day of January, 1810, with the liberty of seeding this fall
    by permission of Mr. Presley Gill, who resides on and will shew the land to
    any person wishing to purchase.
    William Taylor, acting executor of William Taylor, dec.

    Number and ages of children consistent with Ferak's AWT.

    Household also includes a female <10 who is right age range to be Caroline. However, it only includes 4 female children. With the exception of Mary E, the AWTree does not identify any children b. after 1810 but the 1820 census shows 2 children under 10.

    NOTE: possible candidate because this places Caroline closer to Ohio where she was married in 1835.

    If so, this means the Lewis Bridwell who died in Stafford and was married to Elizabeth Stark was not Caroline's father
