Elizabeth "Betsey" Norwood

Female Aft 1761 - Yes, date unknown


Personal Information    |    Sources    |    All    |    PDF

  • Name Elizabeth "Betsey" Norwood  [1
    Nickname Betsey 
    Birth Aft 1761 
    Gender Female 
    Death Yes, date unknown 
    Notes 
    • John Norwood notes her DOD as 1798. I think this is in error:

      1) Some sources show her as married in Oct. 1790, and that she was the mother of 10 children prior to her death. This would be more than a child a year. She may have been married earlier than 1790, however.

      2) Her youngest three sons, and one daughter, were born in or after 1798 according to census records.

      3) Her brother, John Norwood, died in 1798. Perhaps their records were confused.
