FISK, Lemuel and Mrs. Elisabeth Copeland of Worcester, int. Aug. 29, 1846.
The 1850 census (family 186), shows Elizabeth to be 76, so born about 1774 or early 1775. The Worcester records show no Copeland deaths, nor any other record of Elizabeth, offering no clue as to her identity, and no records present them selves to basic searching. There is a death record of a widow Elizabeth Fisk in Upton, age 88 in 1863, so born about 1775. The birthplace is listed as Upton, and her father's name as "[blank] Sherman", but that does not lead to anything obvious (e.g., no Sherman births recorded in Upton VRs), and it is not even clear this is the right person.
