    'ELIZABETH ARNOLD, born at Ilchester, Somerset (not Cheselbourne, Dorset), England, on 23 November 1611 and died after 10 February 1679/80 (date of husband’s will) (ca. 1683?), daughter of William1 and Christian (Peak) Arnold. William and Elizabeth were almost certainly buried on their homestead, in present-day Cranston' sources follow
    'An inscription in Mineral Springs Cemetery, Pawtucket, gives Elizabeth (Arnold) Carpenter’s date of death as 7 September 1685 (see RI Cems 68). It presumably appears on the same monument—almost certainly a cenotaph, erected many generations later—as that bearing inscriptions memorializing her brothers, Benedict (buried in Newport) and Stephen (buried in Pawtuxet, later removed to Swan Point Cemetery, Providence) (see RI Cems 13, 15, and unpaged descriptions of cemeteries CR084, NT011, PV003, PW001). The date of death in Elizabeth’s inscription (repeated in a comparatively recent Arnold genealogy) almost certainly reflects confusion with that of husband William, whose death is twice recorded as having occurred on that date (see Arnold Rec 6; PrTR 6:150, 17:62–63). ...'
