About Elizabeth West

Elizabeth's maiden name is thought to be "Thomas," but there are currently no known records to prove it. Her parents are thought to be John Thomas (1621-1691) and Sarah Pitney (1628-1682). Another theory says she is the daughter of Nathaniel Thomas (1606-1674), of Plymouth Colony. But Elizabeth fits in well with the John & Sarah Thomas family, being born after one son and then before another. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/5673816/elizabeth-west
