Notes for Elizabeth BODDINGTON It seems Elizabeth died in August giving birth to her sixth child, William. In September her oldest child Mary (8) died and in November so did the youngest, William. Of her six children five died within a few months of birth and Mary lived just a few years. What sorrow for Elizabeth and particularly for her husband Robert - nine years of joy always to end in misery, including the loss of his wife.
