Biography

Death and Legacy

Nicholas Norton died in April or thereabout and his widow did not long survive to carry out the provisions of his will. Elizabeth Norton died a few months after him, between June 8, the date of her will, and Oct. 8, 1690, when it was proven in Court.

He married her probably in Weymouth, and she must be sought for in that locality. Their descendants have constituted one of the largest families on the island from the earliest times. [A century ago there were thirty-­three separate families bearing this name on the Vineyard, the second largest numerically at that time.] Research Notes

There are as yet no sources for Elizabeth before her marriage (?). Is there a record for their marriage? If their son was born in 1641, then she is also PGM. Can it be proven that her LNAB was Isaac? If her purported father Joseph Isaac died in England in 1642, with whom did Elizabeth immigrate?
