  • Notes 
    • Early Life
      Elizabeth Cary must have been born around 1630, given the age of her husband and the birth of her eldest son in 1651. Her parents were George Cary of Redcastle and Jane Beresford, daughter of Tristram Beresford and Susannah Brooke.

      From FHoHoD1:
      Elizabeth Carey was of the ancient family of Cary, seated for many years in counties Devon and Somerset. The family derived its name from the manor of Cary (or Karl, as it is called in the Domesday Book), lying in the parish of St Giles-in-the-Heath, near Launceston.

      George Cary, Esq., was Recorder of Londonderry and MP In 1613. He had a grant of land of Redcastle from Sir Arthur Chichester. He married Jane, daughter of Tristram Beresford and sister of Sir Tristram Beresford, and died 22 April 1640.
