Elizabeth Harwood Christison Dixon

She arrived in Maryland in 1657 with John Gary, Sr.(father), Judith Gary, Sr. (mother), Judith Gary (sister), John Jr. ( brother) and Jane (probably sister). Source: U.S. and Canada, Passenger and Immigration Lists Index, 1500s-1900s

She married first to Robert Harwood in 1657 after "The Strangest Courtship". Her mother Judith (widowed and remarried) and her step-father Peter Sharp brought suit against Robert for "slander and unhandsome behavior...to the detriment of Elizabeth Gary". Robert and Elizabeth exchanged affections but her parents were "dissatisfied". The court ordered Elizabeth to be conveyed to the house of Thomas Davis to remain there for six months during which Robert could court her. Her expenses entertainment would be paid by Robert if they married, or Peter Sharp if they didn't. Peter Sharp and all others were restricted from any persuasion or endeavor to obstruct Elizabeth from making her own choice. Their marriage was subsequently recorded in the Third Haven Monthly Meeting of Talbot, Maryland.

After Robert's death she married secondly the "distinguished" Wenlock Christison. Her third marriage was to William Dixon.
