Elizabeth (?) was born before 1758. She married George Wait, son of Samuel Wait and Sarah Greene, circa 1772.
Many suggestions have been made about Elizabeth's background. It is quite possible that she is a Briggs or even a Salls. The Salls and the Waits were so close over the years there is a hint that they were familiar with each other back in Canaan in the 1770's. Perhaps since Hix Salls (b. 1752) married a Mary Briggs, presumably in the Canaan area, that the relationship comes from her being a sister to Elizabeth who married George Wait. That would help explain the numerous occurances of the names Briggs and Hix within both families.
