Elizabeth Thornton is seen as a daughter of John ‘the immigrant’ Rowland & Margaret Overed without supporting evidence, and surname Rowland is likewise undocumented.

If anyone knows differently, she can be reattached.

Cheshire, England, Parish Registers, 1538-1909

Gender Female

But dates don’t work.

She’s seen with Birth: 1627 in Yorkshire, England

And her supposed father was born 1615.

Do we have better references?
