Biography

  • Elizabeth Jaquith was born on 19 May 1675, in Woburn, Middlesex County, Massachusetts Bay Colony. She was the daughter of Abraham Jaquith[1][2] and Mary Adford.
  • Fact: Christening (19 May 1675) Woburn, Middlesex, Massachusetts, United States.
  • Fact: Residence (1675) Woburn City, Middlesex, Massachusetts, United States

Research

  • Elizabeth's 1695 marriage in Billerica, Mass to John Durrant in Billerica, Mass.[3][4][5]
  • Elizabeth's daily life in Billerica is virtually invisible to history. However, since we know of her marriage to John Durrant, perhaps her life in New England can be see through the records of the couple's children?
- John, b. 14 Aug 1686 in Billerica[6]
- Elizabeth, b. Sep1698 in Billerica[7]
- Thomas, b. Oct 1701 in Billerica[8]
- Abigail, b. 16 Mar 1704 in Billerica[9]
- Ester, b. 5 Nov 1707 in Billerica[10]
- Abraham, b. 1 Apr 1709 in Billerica[11]
- Mehitable, b. 4 Dec 1711 in Billerica[12][13]
- Sarah, b. 5 Nov 1712 in Billerica[14]
  • If hubby' John's 25 Feb 1757 death in Billerica[15] shows anything, it's that he (at least) lived his entire life in Billerica. I haven't found any document proving he &/or Elizabeth moved to another village or town.
  • This profile shows that Elizabeth lived for another 20 years in Billerica, dying in Oct of 1777... at the ripe old age of 102. Perhaps her DOD needs to be reviewed?

- perhaps some of the children attributed in this profile to John & Elizabeth are, in fact, children of another John Durrant, living in Billerica?
