Died in childbirth. Elizabeth Edwards has been discounted: "Wife of John Goodrich was NOT daughter of Thomas Edwards of Wethersfield. Earlier information reported that Elizabeth, wife of John Goodrich, was a daughter of Thomas Edwards of Wethersfield. Jacobus, in Hale, House, reports: "His wife, Elizabeth, in nearly all printed accounts, is placed as a daughter of Thomas Edwards; but since Edwards, by his stated age at death, was born about 1621 and also was referred in 1657 by Winthrop as a "young man," he could hardly have been father of Elizabeth Goodrich whose eldest child was born in 1645 when her alleged father was about twenty-four years old." Jacobus offers no further explanation for who she might be. Note that a TAG article from the 1980's has delineated the genealogy of the Edwards family of Wethersfield with no mention of her, except acknowledging the Hale, House and Related Families conclusion that she was not an Edwards."
