Hi Clay and all.  Check the Surry court orders for the years from 1665/70 to 1700.  There will be found MANY names of heads of household chargeable for payments of the tithes on the property, and with those responsible names are the given- and surnames of the tithables under his/her charge.

  Of all the titheable lists I have seen I don't remember ever seeing one that
  listed names of the titheables, so there is no way of knowing if she was
  included or not. I do believe at some point a law was pasted with poll taxes on
  everyone. Perhaps Paul Drake knows the answer as he has answered many questions
  about titheables on this list.
