[In 1652, the 8th month was October. The author says that despite this record indicating Elizabeth was born in Oyster Bay, she probably was born in "New England". Source:White, Elizabeth Pearson. John Howland of the Mayflower, p. 37 says either Plymouth or Barnstable.]

Elizabeth Dickinson Wright Lockwood
Birth 11 Oct 1652
Barnstable County, Massachusetts, USA
Death unknown
Greenwich, Fairfield County, Connecticut, USA
Probably the same as Elizabeth Dickenson, eldest child of Capt. John Dickinson and Elizabeth Howland of Barnstable, Massachusetts. Elizabeth's first husband, whom she married after 20 May 1673 in Oyster Bay, Long Island, New York, was CALEB WRIGHT, son of Nicholas and Ann Wright. She and Caleb had two daughters and a son. Caleb died in 1695, and two years later, on 3 Aug. 1697, Elizabeth remarried to GERSHOM LOCKWOOD. She probably survived Gershom, being presumably Gershom's widow Elizabeth who was appointed administrator of his estate on 1 April 1719 in Greenwich, Connecticut.

Survey of sources concerning this question. Birth recorded in New York Society of Friends but probably occurred in Barnstable, as father first provably in Oyster Bay 1658, and may have followed minister William Leveredge there between 1653 and 1654.
"The chronology of Elizabeth Dickinson (born 1652) and that of Elizabeth, wife of Caleb Wright, are compatible. ...Elizabeth is a common name..."
"Caleb Wright's wife Elizabeth remarried in Oyster Bay to Gershom Lockwood as his second and final wife. ... living on 1 April 1719. No gravestone has been located for her in Greenwich and no probate record in Fairfield Co., Conn., Long Island, N.Y., or New Jersey."
"But for now, it is the mere coincidence of chronology that hints that this could [be] the case."
