↑ Source:Allred, Marilyn. Town of Warwick, Franklin County, Massachusetts, Genealogical Records 1739-1900, Births, Marriages,, p. 251, gives Elizabeth's birth as 13 Jul 1756 in Warwick, despite the next sister, Sibbulah, being born 1758 in Uxbridge. Possibly Allred relied on Source:Bassett, William. History of the Town of Richmond, Cheshire County, New Hampshire : From Its First Settlement, to 1882, p. 304, which says the same thing, and of course, it is parroted by Find A Grave having no gravestone image. The only records found, however, give her birth in 1755 in Uxbridge. Of course, she was of Warwick at the time of marriage, and only can only assume an flawed age at death led to an incorrect birth date being reported.
