About Elizabeth Cheney

Daughter of John Gaither and first wife Jane Buck. http://genforum.genealogy.com/ijams/messages/420.html

Married at least twice. Richard Iiams was her first(?) husband, married c. 1715. He died c. 1750 and she married John Cheney (who was probably a widower, maybe several times). She is believed to have died circa 1762 or 1763, when John Cheney sold off some property they had bought and made no mention of her.
