Elizabeth was born around 1792. She married Henry C. Begley in 1813. She died sometime after 1870 where her last known residence was Lee County, Kentucky.
Notes
1850 and 1860 Perry Co., KY censuses show Henry and Betty both still living. In one her place of birth is Kentucky in the other it is Tennessee. She even appears to still be living in Lee Co., KY as late as 1870 where her place of birth is given as Virginia. It may not be possible to determine exactly where she was born.

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Elizabeth by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
Mitochondrial DNA test-takers in the direct maternal line:
Roberts-12776 and Roberts-4326 appear to represent the same person because: Exactly the same person. Same spouse, same parents. Same estimated dob. Henry married only one Elizabeth Roberts.
Roberts-12776 and Roberts-4326 are not ready to be merged because: Record shows one being born in North Carolina, and the other one in Clay County, KY.
Roberts-4337 and Roberts-4326 appear to represent the same person because: parents are the same and profile should be open since sister was born in 1799
