Elizabeth was the daughter of Benjamin and Mary Hughs Cox who moved to Northwest Ohio after the War of 1812, living in Fort Finlay, vacated at the close of the War of 1812, until they moved "to the Maumee" about 1823.
Elizabeth was an interpreter for the whites with the Ottawa and Wyandotte Indians who were the family's only neighbors for a time in Hancock county. She married Jacob Eberly on 28 October 1827 in Waterville, and they were the parents of eleven children who they raised during that pioneer era.
Their daughter Harriet Doud wrote a fictionalized account of their life and times called "Hoof-Beaten Trails."
