About Elizabeth Poor

1687: Elizabeth Swett, daughter of Stephen Swett and Hannah Merrill, married Edward Poore. [Stackpole. Their marriage isn't in the vital records of any town in Essex County.] He was born in Newbury 22 May 1656 son of Samuel Poore [Newbury VR] and Rebecca Church [RootsWeb]. He was a mariner. The births of Stephen Poer 1688 and Elizabeth Poer 1690 are in the Newbury VR, but the births of Mary 1697 and Joseph 1704 are not. Other children: Joanne, Enoch, and Judith. He died 18 April 1743. She also died in 1743. [RootsWeb] Most of this information isn't in the vital records of Essex County, so they probably lived in Newbury for a few years after they were married, and then lived and died somewhere else.
