He married first to Sarah Cornelia "Sallie" Brown at unknown date. Sarah C Dunlap was listed on the 1870 Federal Census Mortality Schedule, aged 24, VA born, died April 1870 from dropsy of heart. Her obit says she died at her father, John Brown's residence near Swoope's Depot in Augusta Co., the wife of Wm Bailie Dunlap in the 25th year of her age.

Widowed, he married second to Mary Esther "Mollie" Shirley on 3 Jan 1876 in Augusta County, Virginia.
