Hi folks! I think that the date of birth is wrong on this profile. The date given is the date of birth for her spouse, Achilles Moorman.

There seem to be two different records of birth listed under U.S. and International Marriage Records, 1560-1900. Both are the same couple but Elizabeth Adams date of birth is 1715 on one and 1720 on the other. I don't think it is 1713, for that is her spouse's year of birth.

Adams-18736 and Adams-883 appear to represent the same person because: Dates, locations and husbands are the same. Only 2 children are different and not menitoned in Achilles' will, so those children should be looked at, but these profiles are the same woman.

Edit, not locations, but her husband was in Bedford/Campbell and wrote his will in Campbell. Did she go back to Louisa when her husband died?

Adams-18736 and Adams-883 do not represent the same person because: I believe that Adams - 18736 has information for two different persons. The birth and death dates match but the children do not. More research is needed.
Adams-18736 and Adams-883 appear to represent the same person because: Exact DOB, same spouse and biography.

Difference in dates to be noted in the biography until a source can be added.

Adams-26495 and Adams-883 appear to represent the same person because: Same spouse and child. Difference in dates to be noted in the biography until a primary source can be added.
