Elizabeth married Gilbert Crackbone, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, on 17 June 1656. Because she is called "Elizabeth Coolidge" in the record, she has been identified as a daughter of John Coolidge and Mary (Ravens) Coolidge, born about 1634, possibly in England or possibly in Watertown, Massachusetts.[1] Bond listed her as a questionable child of this marriage, noting that if she was a daughter of John Coolidge, she died without progeny before 19 November 1681, when her father wrote his will.[2] Anderson states that this is an error. She was not a daughter of John Coolidge, but was in fact the widow of John Cooley of Ipswich, Massachusetts. On 6 July 1665 "Goodwife Crackbone, relict & administratrix of John Cooly" was mentioned in a deed.[3]
Elizabeth's origins and birth name are unknown. She was probably born in England in the earliest decades of the 1600s. She probably emigrated to New England with her first husband, John Cooley, who died at Ipswich, Massachusetts, in 1654.[4]
She was married to her second husband, Gilbert Crackbone, of Cambridge, Massachusetts, on 17 June 1656 in Cambridge.[5] There were no children from this marriage. Gilbert Crackbone's will granted to his widow Elizabeth "all that part of my moveable estate that was her own before her marriage to me" and the use and improvement of his "dwelling house and barn [and] lands."[5]
Elizabeth married for a third time, to Richard Robbins, in Cambridge on 26 March 1673.[6]
