Arrived on American Soil with husband William Boynton and the group formed by Reverend Ezekiel Rogers on the ship John of London. With them on this journey came the first printing press, delivered to Boston. The group then journeyed north and purchased land that is now centered around Rowley, Massachusetts and originally included parts of other outlying towns such as Newbury and Essex.
It is not known where Elizabeths's final resting place is. She lived with daughter Mary (Eastman) Boynton and Mary's husband John Eastman after the death of her husband and the year prior to her death, and could therefore possibly be buried in Salisbury, Essex, Massachusetts. The only existing 17th century cemetery in Rowley was the Rowley Burial Ground and it is more than likely that at least two of her and William's sons are interred there in unmarked graves.
Town historians have cited that most of the original townspeople are buried in that cemetery. It is possible he is elsewhere, but more likely he is in an unmarked grave in Rowley. Grave markers in the 17th century were usually wooden; therefore any memorial is long gone. As William and Elizabeth's children were all born here, and some died here, it is more than likely they, too, rest in the Rowley Burial Ground
