Elizabeth Kin(g)sley daughter of Eldad and Mehitable (French) Kingsley, was born on 29 Jan. 1662 at Rehoboth, Bristol, Massachusetts ^[1][2] Note discrepancy in mother's maiden surname vs. Mehitable Mowry as currently profiled; effort should be made to sort out her true maternal parent, then this profile should be edited accordingly.

She married Samuel Palmer, son of Samuel Palmer, son of Jonas and Elizabeth (Grissell) Palmer, on Jan 13, 1680/1 at Rehoboth.^[3][2] They had 12 children as profiled.

This family removed from Rehoboth, Massachusetts to part of Windham County, now known as Scotland, Connecticut.
