Due to multiple requests not to clog up AFD with dozens of non-notable VA place stubs, I've been PRODding almost all of the ones I come across in that bunch that just aren't notable. But this is is going to AFD because I frankly cannot identify what in the world this is/was. GNIS entry is sourced to a county highway map, so it's not surprising this place doesn't show up on the topos. In fact, there's almost nothing on topographic maps at this site. Newspapers.com brings up a couple references to a "Tilman House", but the described location of the Tilman House does not fit the location of this site. Google and Google books don't bring up anything really meaningful, even when searching in county histories. There were some Tillmans in Albemarle County in olden times, but I can't find evidence of a WP:GEOLAND-passing community here. I just don't see any way this one is notable.

- Speedy delete Mass-production without WP:V or WP:N. US place names do not use apostrophes, so this was originally Tillman's, likely referring to the house or store belonging to a Mr. Tillman. Without any coverage we cannot presume notability. Reywas92 Talk 05:01, 24 January 2021 (UTC)
- delete Streetview seems to show that there was/is a business here, but no period shows more besides this except fairly scattered structures. GNIS copying a dot from someone else's map is just not enough information to justify an article. Mangoe ( talk) 06:12, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

- Delete per above, but strongly oppose speedy, as a large portion of the "mass-created" Virginia articles Reywas92 takes issue with are, in fact notable. That being said, this one isn't. Smartyllama ( talk) 20:52, 26 January 2021 (UTC)
