PROBLEM NOT SOLVED / ERROR SPOTTED Nov. 15, 1715 - Elizabeth reportedly married second time to Dea. Daniel Wood of Boxford two years before her death. Daniel reported as the son of Daniel and Mary Foster. There is a record of an Elizabeth Hopkinson marrying a Daniel Wood in Rowley ^[9] PROBLEM - Dea.
