Facts and Events
Name Elizabeth Loomis
Gender Female
Christening[1] 24 Jan 1579 Thaxted, Essex, England
Ancestral File Number GBG2-WJ

She was not the sister of John Loomis, father of Joseph Loomis the immigrant to New England. Joseph's grandfather John Loomis died in 1567, and thus could not have been Elizabeth's father.

Since it is known that another John Loomis (cousin to the father of the immigrant Joseph) had 3 daughters, two whose names are not known, she might have been one of them. Or she could have been the daughter of that John's son John, whose son William was baptized and buried in 1570.
