Biography

Elizabeth was born about 1737. She is the daughter of Benjamin Bearse and Elizabeth Godfrey[1]

On December 7, 1754, she married Thomas Eldredge in Chatham, Barnstable Massachusetts[2] [3], and they may have had children, including those shown in this profile[4]

There is no source clearly showing her death. Some family trees say 1764, which is a decade before the birth of her last child according to this profile. Other family trees give 1783, or no date at all. The death date was removed from this profile until a source can be found, to avoid creating unnecessary DB errors/suggestions.
