Elizabeth Cannon was baptised on 12th June 1768 at Hitchin in Hertfordshire, daughter of Ann Cannon, formerly Bracey, and her husband Godfrey Cannon, a labourer. She was the youngest of their eight children. When Elizabeth was thirteen years old, her mother died.

Elizabeth was married at Hitchin on 23rd November 1784, aged sixteen, to a labourer called James Kent. They do not appear to have had any children. Elizabeth died after only sixteen months of marriage, aged seventeen. She was buried at Hitchin on 28th March 1786. It is not clear what happened to James after her death. Elizabeth's father outlived her.
