Elizabeth BLACK/BLAKE, Kittery, ME related to William Black?

Family Search has Elizabeth (Betsey)BLAKE/BLACK CALL b. 1805 in Kittery, Maine and died in 1892 probably in Kittery.

She married Joseph Call b. 1801, Kittery ME.

They had daughter Elizabeth who marries George W PATCH, (b. 1809, d. 1896 York, ME) in June of 1833.


But there is other information that has Elizabeth BLAKE CALL born about 1792 in Kittery, ME. She shows up in the 1880 census for Kittery, ME at age 88.

We have a hint that Elizabeth BLAKE/BLACK might have been the daughter of Henry and Sarah Spinney Black of Eliot, ME, which for awhile was considered Kittery, which makes everything confusing. There are also too many Elizabeth's, Sarah's and Henry's to keep track of.

Many African American Blacks changed their name to BLAKE.

Does anyone have a definite ancestry on Elizabeth BLACK.
Is she descended from the Harpswell, ME Black's, who were descended from William Black of Kittery, freed African American slave of the Shapleigh Family?


Here is a great site on the African American Black's of Maine
