Biography

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Thurber-537

Elizabeth was born in 1678 at Swansea in what is now Massachusetts, the daughter of John Thurber and Mary (Tucker?).[1]

Elizabeth probably married Thomas Eastabrooke as his second wife by 8 November 1703, when their child Elizabeth was born.[2]

Thomas was executor of his mother-in-law Mary's estate in 1718. Son John Eastabrooke was named in the will.[3]

Elizabeth married second Jeremiah Child by 16 July 1745 (but probably closer to Thomas's death in 1724).[2]

A division of her estate was made 25 July 1771.[2][4] Several of her heirs sold their shares in her estate at Warren to Nathan Miller. These include son Benjamin,[5] son John, married to Frances,[6] and granddaughter Elizabeth, daughter of William and wife of Edward Thurber.[7]
