At a casual glance it appears that the Elizabeth Silvester who married
Amaziah Churchill was a sixth generation descendant of Richard Warren, her
ancestry being Solomon Sylvester, Hannah Bartlett, Joseph Bartlett, Mary
Warren, Richard Warren.

At a casual glance it appears that the Elizabeth Sylvester who married Seth
Churchill was a seventh generation descendant of Richard Warren, her
ancestry being Solomon Sylvester, Solomon Sylvester, Hannah Bartlett,
Joseph Bartlett, Mary Warren, Richard Warren.

Thus it appears that the first Elizabeth was the aunt of the second Elizabeth.
