A tree on Ancestry says that Elizabeth Hoskins was born May 1810, Shaftesbury, daughter of Francis Hoskins & Ann Lambert and married Asher Harris 9 Aug. 1829. It lists 6 children of that marriage. She then marries Thomas Foote 1846, 2 children listed.
Curiously the tree states that Thomas Foote was the son of Thomas Foote and another Elizabeth Hoskins who was the daughter of William Hoskins & Elizabeth Symes.
