Elizabeth Saunders

Notes:

[Henry's] widow survived him about five weeks; she died July 7 [1655], and her will, dated July 5, is attested by her mark. The explanation of this, which we find in one of our old manuscripts, is unquestionably authentic: "Their wills were made just before their deaths, and Mrs. Wolcott, not being well enough to write her name, only made her mark."
- Wolcott Genealogy

Elizabeth married Henry Wolcott about Jan 1605/06 in Lydeard St Lawrence, Somersetshire, England.
