"... Mary Coley Reason: No source given for a middle name of "Elizabeth". The practice of giving middle names to a child born in England and in early America essentially didn't exist until the 1800s. Middle names in England did exist earlier in history for the nobility and there was actually a law making them illegal for anyone else.
