Elizabeth was married three times.
Her first husband was John Shotwell (1712-1779), 1734-5, per Ambrose M. Shotwell, Annals of Our Colonial Ancestors, pgs. 139, 140.
Their children:
1. Elizabeth Shotwell b. Feb 27 1736, possibly died young
2. John Smith Shotwell 1739-1801 m. Mary Webster and Phebe Shotwell.
Source: A.M. Shotwell, pg. 141
Elizabeth & John Shotwell were somehow disjoined from their original union, with approval of Quakers and both remarried under Plainfield MM; a few notations in Quaker MM notes. This appeared to have happened before the birth of their son John Smith Shotwell. Elizabeth resumed her maiden name of Smith. See notations posted on John's memorial page, written by Shotwell. It appears that money and power could be negotiated to bend the Quaker tenants or possibly Shotwell's writing was incorrect?
Elizabeth Smith married Samuel Laing (1706-1742).
