There were two individuals named ELIZABETH PAGE in the 1850 census records, believed to be sisters-in-law. One was born in 1780 in North Carolina, living with Martha Phillips, a widow born in Georgia in 1805, perhaps a sister to Sophia. This Martha Phillips was closely related to Hezekiah Wilson Page of Jones County, Mississippi. The other Elizabeth was born in 1770 in North Carolina, and was living with Andrew Page, James Page, and John Seals, all of whom were the age to be grandchildren. This Elizabeth was residing next door to Jefferson Page, who was living with M. Collins at the time. Connee Kroeger, now deceased, determined that the latter was the widow of Thomas Page. It is believed that Elizabeth is buried near where they lived, northeast of Covington, St. Tammany Parish, Louisiana, on the Bogue Chitto River. Probably, her grave is unmarked.
