Elizabeth Cabell was born either in 1774 or 1776. She was educated with her elder sister Margaret. On April 14, 1791, her father made this entry in his diary: Clement Carrington informed me of his intention to pay his addressed to my daughter Betsy. Many years afterwards (about 1845, I think), when Colonel Clement was very old, the late N.F. Cabell asked him if he remembered his courtship. He said: I do – as if it were yesterday! She declined me! She said she was too young to leave her parents! I stood up and took my stand in front of her and said, Madame! I will be parents to you! But I could make no impression upon her and I now suspect that her heart was already engaged elsewhere.
She was married at Union Hill, by the Rev. Mr. O’Neal, on April 9, 1795, to her first cousin, William H. Cabell, son of Colonel Nicholas Cabell, the elder, of Liberty Hall. The young couple lived at Union Hill and all of her children were born there – until January 29, 1801, when they moved to their own home at Midway. He father gave her lands adjoining those of her brother Landon, which were inherited by her son Abraham, who sold them to Mr. Robert Rives Sr., who bequeathed them to his son George, who afterwards subdivided and sold them to different parties. Montreal Railroad Station is located on a part of them.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cabell died of consumption on November 5, 1901 and was buried at Union Hill. Her two sons were placed under their grandmother’s care, at Union Hill and her sister, Mrs. Read (afterwards known as Aunt Le Grand) took charge of her little daughter.
William H. and (his first wife) Elizabeth Cabell had issue:
1) Nicholas Carrington Cabell, born February 9, 1796, at Union Hill; William and Mary College, 1816, lawyer; died October 13, 1821, at Montevideo; buried at Liberty Hall; unmarried.
