Biography

Birth

Questionable: Elizabeth was born in 1753. She was the daughter of Daniel Adams and Elizabeth Balch. She passed away in 1760.[1]

Rather than what is characterized above as questionable, it seems more likely that this Elizabeth was the woman born on May 26, 1763,[2] who did not die in 1760 but rather married John Bacon on November 18, 1784.[3]. The balance of this profile follows that more likely and well-sourced scenario.

Marriage and Children

John Bacon and Elizabeth Adams were married in Barre on Nov. 18, 1794[4]

John and Elizabeth had, in Barre:[5]

  • Elisha, b. July 2, 1798, m. Patty W. Dennis, (daughter of Thomas and Dorothy Rice Dennis) Apr. 4, 1821, their daughter Olive born Feb. 7, 1823. Elisha died Aug. 15, 1836.
  • Betsey, b. about 1801, died Mar. 4, 1822 in her 22nd year

Death

Elizabeth died, in Barre on Mar. 14, 1840, in her 77th year[6]. The calculated birth date is in 1763.

Adams-23513 and Adams-23509 appear to represent the same person because: Two profiles for what once looked like different people, because birth dates differed due to an old transcription error, but are now clearly the same person. Should be merged

Hello. I am not as convinced that this Elizabeth is a profile for the same Elizabeth born to Daniel Adams and Elizabeth Balch. I have come across Mass, US Town and Vital Records, 1620 - 1988 where there is an Elesabeth, d. of Daniel and Elesabeth born 29 Apr 1750 and then Elesabeth, D. of Daniel and Elesabeth, born 26 Mar 1763. I have not found conclusive evidence that they are the same person and there is a transcription error.
