  Notes	Her parentage can only be rated as probable. The Hamilton history says that she was from Havre de Grace, Maryland (559). So the connection to her father Daniel makes sense, but lacks anything so far but circumstantial evidence. I have good references to Daniel Donovan's ancestry itself (see the references there); it is the link between Daniel and Dilly that needs to be clarified. She and her parents appear on the Maryland Mysteries page.
