Research Notes

Jacobus' entire entry for Elizabeth in the list of Barlow children reads "Elizabeth, d 1686, m Daniel Frost" (p 28, Families of Old Fairfield). His entry for Daniel Frost states he was first married to ___________ and second to Elizabeth Barlow. (p 211 Families of Old Fairfield). Children by Elizabeth: Sarah, Daniel, Joseph, Rachel, Hannah, Issac and Esther (presumably in what Jacobus believed was a date order but absent any birth dates--no records exist--though he gives the marriage of first daughter Sara as 1665 to Wm Smith. Rebecca currently seen above is the daughter of the first marriage, not of Elizabeth.^[4]

Dale Kellogg citing Jacobus above, writes the marriage year "in all probability indicates a birth for her somewhat before 1650." This is followed by discussion of another marriage and how the two give the probable birth year for Elizabeth of 1628-1630. In his summary, he uses the year 1628 for the birth of Elizabeth (Barlow) Frost.^[5]
