  • Notes: 

  • Elizabeth has been incorrectly identified as Elizabeth Moody, daughter of George and Elizabeth (Chenery) Moody. While that Elizabeth also married a John Pratt, the parish records of Wood Ditton clearly show that the two couples could not have been one and the same.

    If Elizabeth's husband John Pratt is the son of the Rev. William Pratt of Stevenage, Hertfordshire, England, then it is likely that she is the Elizabeth Young who married John Pratt in Baldock, Hertfordshire, England, in 1626.
