Biography
Research Notes: in this profile Elizabeth was previously, and incorrectly, shown as the mother of Nathaniel's niece Elizabeth even though her correct parents, his brother Jonathan and Bethia, were shown in the Biography. That has been corrected.
Elizabeth is reported to have married Nathaniel Silsby as his second wife before 1697, citing the Marsh Genealogy (q.v. on his profile.) No record of that marriage, nor of his first wife's death before then, yet found in town records. Further research needed.
