Unknown Fitzhugh family member

William Fitzhugh (1651-1701) was an immigrant to Virginia. His 1701 will mentions “6 Pictures of my Relations.” A portrait of his father, Henry Fitzhugh, is known through a later copy. It is unclear who the other 5 pictures recorded. It has been speculated that his mother may have been the subject of one.
