Elizabeth Moore

Elizabeth Moore was born about 1628; the 1649 record of her birth in Sudbury is thought to be a later-in-life return to the county court, as she was clearly married by 1644.<ref>Ethel Stanwood Bolton, "Some Descendants of John Moore of Sudbury, Mass.," in NEHGS Register57(1903):300; and 58(1904):176</ref> That she is daughter of John Moore is from his will, which identifies a daughter, "Elizabeth, wife of Henry Rice." <ref>Ethel Stanwood Bolton, "Some Descendants of John Moore of Sudbury, Mass.," in NEHGS Register 57(1903):300: "On August 25, 1668, he made his will, in which he refers to his age. He died Jan 6, 1673 (?) and his will was probatedApril 7, 1674 (Worcester Co Probate) He mentions his sons John of Lancaster, William, Jacob, Joseph, to whom he leaves his house and Benjamin; also his daughters Elizabeth, wife of Henry Rice, Mary, wife of Daniel Stone and Lydia, wife of James Cutler. His widow Elizabeth was named as Executrix."</ref> That she is daughter by a previous wife (not of John's wife Elizabeth Whale, daughter of Philemon) is revealed by the will of Philemon Whale, naming his daughter's Rice children, none of which is Elizabeth (Moore) Rice. <ref>Ethel Stanwood Bolton, "Some Descendants of John Moore of Sudbury, Mass.," in NEHGS Register 57(1903):300; and 58(1904):176</ref>. This updates and correct Bullard and Allied Families. Unsourced family pages (elsewhere online) claim she was born 10 Jan 1628/1629 in Henham, Essex, England. She was certainly not born in Sudury, Mass, as it wasn't settled until the 1630s, and earliest record of John Moore (her father) there was 1642. <ref>Ethel Stanwood Bolton, "Some Descendants of John Moore of Sudbury, Mass.," in NEHGS Register 57(1903):300</ref>
