The birth record for Elizabeth reports her last name as Ayer. She may have also gone by Ayers, but Ayer is the LNAB as listed in Haverhill Vital Records
LNAB? does that mean Last Name At Birth? Well, in my study of document it clearly says Ayers for Elizabeth. Her dad's looks like Ayer. There are frequently many different spellings of the same name in any given document. It makes no matter to me which one you prefer.
