Elizabeth's maiden name is unknown. She married about 1754 to William Rush and they had four children.

Right now (2017) circumstantial evidence, specifically nearby property owners suggests her maiden name "might" have been Ream, but sufficient evidence is lacking to make such an assumption.

Reasonably conclusive evidence would be the location of a marriage record, deed, will or probate record naming her.

Note: tombstone inscription from a 1934 WPA transcription (In two independent surveys, Nov 2006-me and 2007-Glenda Shay, the tombstone was not found) - Linda Marker, an incredible sleuth, located this tombstone in 2013, Thank you Linda.
