Biography

Elizabeth Ellbourne (?) Tilley, the daughter of William Elbourne was born about 1544 .[1] Robert Tilley married Elizabeth Ellbourne about 1565-1570 at Henlow, Bedfordshire, England.[citation needed] No such marriage in Henlow. Robert's biography says they married in Rutland (unsourced) so Elizabeth's birthplace is unlikely to be Henlow. With no marriage cited what's the evidence that her LNAB was Elborne?

She was buried as Elizabeth Tillie, widow, on 27 March 1614 at Henlow, Bedfordshire, England.[2]
