Biography

Elizabeth (Unknown) Loving was a Virginia colonist.

Elizabeth may have been born about 1605-1615 in Warwickshire, England. Her parents and last name at birth are unknown. Some online family trees have suggested either "Beverly" or "Stanton." No documentation has been provided. There are several Elizabeths on record with either surname who were born in England during the relevant periond.

Elizabeth married first Thomas Kingston before 1636. No children of this marriage have been documented.

Following the death of Thomas Kingston in 1636, Elizabeth married Thomas Loving before 1638 in James City, Virginia.^[1]

Research Notes

I believe there are multiple errors in this branch. Elizabeth was the widow of Thomas Kingston before she married Thomas Loving before 1639.
