        In the Ancestral File (AFN: CQ34-T2), Elizabeth's name is given as Salter or Ellis, and her father's name as either Robert Salter Ellis or William Salter. Since Robert Salter <i>als</i> Ellis appears to have had another daughter named Elizabeth christened in 1616, it is unlikely he was the father of the Elizabeth Salter who married Richard Martin (in 1630). Therefore, it is likely that her name was simply Elizabeth Salter.

      • Source text:

        'This name is spelled Ellis <i>als</i> Salter, Salter <i>als</i> Ellis, Ellis, and Salter on the Registers of Ottery St. Mary, Devon.'
        The article goes on to talk about the family of John Ellis <i>als</i> Salter, 'possibly son of Robert Salter <i>als</i> Ellis.'

        Her burial information likely represents a confusion with another person (possibly Elizabeth (Martin) Pester, who was buried 7 Mar 1666 in Ottery St Mary [IGI film #457048]). Elizabeth (Salter) Martin's death date appears to be unknown.

        Death: Rehoboth, Bristol, Massachusetts
        Burial: 3 Mar 1666 Ottery, St.mary, Devon, England'

        While other IGI entries (and the Ancestral File) give the place as Honiton on Otter, Devon, England, this entry seems to be the only one that gives the date as her christening (rather than birth) date, and thus is likely more authentic.
