Comments: There seems to be some debate about the relationship of Elizabeth Brewster to her cousin/uncle William Brewster - Here's one thread of discussion on the subject at the Forum on Genealogy.com. Wikipedia does not seem to recognize Elizabeth as a daughter of William Brewster and either does the Mayflower Society. William seems to have been too young to be her father, maybe she was a cousin to William.
