childen of James Benedict and Sarah Gregory include:
"Elizabeth, b. July, 1696; probably m. Samuel Taylor"

Note that someone has stroked out Samuel and replaced it with Daniel - this might or might not be reliable. If it is based on "Families of Old Fairfield" than it appears to refer to an Elizabeth Benedict of the wrong generation.
↑ There doesn't appear to be a source for the date, which is similar to the birth date (Jul 1696) given by Henry Marvin Benedict for Elizbeth Benedict, daughter of James Benedict and Sarah Gregory. Possibly this is not the correct marriage date, or possibly H.M. Benedict accidentally gave Elizabeth's marriage date as her birth date (begging the question of when she was born, as it seems unlikely to have been before 1680 based on the birth dates of other children in this family).
