Elizabeth's mother, Keziah (Moore) Trowbridge was the daughter of Mary (Green) Moore who was captured by Indians when Seneca warriors attacked the Green farm and killed her husband and baby boy.  After she escaped from the Indians she married a Moore.  The Green farm which was near Kingwood, was latter the home of Samuel Ruble Trowbridge.

Elizabeth's father Jonathan (John) Trowbridge was the brother of David Trowbridge, uncle of Samuel Grady Trowbridge and great uncle of James McGrew Trowbridge.
