This Elizabeth Chesley seems to be wife of Philip Chesley, Sr. & mother of Philip Chesley, Jr.

Elizabeth Chesley the wife of Philip Chesley may still have issues

Here is one reference that lists the wife of a Philip Chesley as Sarah Leighton dau. of Thomas Leighton who would be then Sarah Chesley

And there was a merge, but was done too long ago to undo
Sarah Leighton was merged into Elizabeth (Leighton) Cromwell

Elizabeth Small is the wife of Francis Small

Francis Small will need some merges of his parents when I'm finished

Elizabeth Small is wife of Francis Small removed Francis Small as the husband of Elizabeth Cromwell

Will begin looking through the profiles and merge duplicates.

I'm not sure if the photo is for Elizabeth Cromwell or is a left over from the miss-merges.

It could be possibly of Elizabeth Small or even Elizabeth Chesley

The image is in the same style as others in the Small tree.

Thank you for your observation Erica
I will move the photo over to Elizabeth Small

I understand that the descendants of Edward Smale / Smalle ended up with two different surnames (Small and Smalley), but why are you naming Francis, who married Elizabeth Leighton, Francis "Small". He signed his last name as "Smaley" in his will. His son, Benjamin, was the witness to the will, and singed his name as Benjamin Smalley. Miraculously, you have changed both of their last names as Small.

Thanks,

Paul Smalley.

I've entered Francis Smaley in his 'Also Known As:' field.

This is what makes tracking the genealogy of Edward Small / Smale / Smalley and his descendants difficult. Everyone who ended up with the surname Small creates their family tree and labels everyone as a "Small". Likewise, everyone who ended up with the surname Smalley, like me, labels all of the descendants of Edward a Smalley. So we have family trees for the same people as both Small and Smalley all over the internet and sites like these.
