C > Chittenden > Nathaniel Chittenden Jr.
She was born 1668 at Killingworth, and married Abraham Post in 1692. He died in 1647, nameing her in his will, and her will is dated 14 Aug 1755.
Since Nathaniel Chittenden, Jr. died in 1738, she would not be able to be married to him after the death of Abraham Post, and she could not have married Abraham Post if she married Nathaniel first.
Mr. Michael Rudy, author of The Colonial Post Family of Saybrook and Hebron, Connecticut: Abraham Post (2) and his Descendants (NEHGR 146:113-223), suggests that Alvan Talcott, "Chittenden Family: William Chittenden of Guilford, Conn. and His Descendants," may have erred matching Elizabeth Stevens to Nathaniel as his wife.
