Elizabeth was the youngest daughter of John Holliday, yeoman, of Hazill Hill, Lydiard Tregoze, Wilts. She was baptised 22nd June 1693 and married Benjamin Vines (1689-1763) at Lydiard Tregoze in 1717. Her death occurred 4 years after that of Benjamin, in 1767 (her will was signed and dated 20th December 1767).

John Holliday was apparently born in 1647 and from his will made 18 Jan. 1727/8, & proved in the Archdeaconry Court of Wilts., 5 Nov. 1730, apparently lived to 1730. His wife Margaret, mother of Elizabeth, was buried 15 Sept. 1727.
The will of John Holliday includes the following extract (Courtesy of Richard Carruthers):

*="Item, I give and bequeath unto my Son: In: Law Benjamin Vines, the
principal Sum of Ninety Pounds, & the Interest thereof, due to me on a

Also from Richard Carruthers:
"The Diocese of Sarum [Salisbury] marriage licence bonds and allegations CD put out by the Wiltshire Family History Society shows ..... an Elizabeth Holliday aged 22 , of Lydiard Tregoze, to marry by licence one John Seymour, brushmaker of St James's Westminster, Middlesex aged 21, in which the bondsman for the licence is
none other than Benjamin Vines, yeoman, of Grittenham, Brinkworth. The marriage apparently took place at Sherston Magna on 20 April 1730." (ie when Benjamin had already been married 13 years so this was probably the niece of his wife).

From the will of Benjamin in 1763 comes the following extract relevant to the mention in his father-in-law's
will of the property at Hook:
"First I give Devise and Bequeath unto my loving Wife Elizabeth Vines my Leasehold Estate at Hook in the parish of Liddyard Treygooze in the said County of Wilts Containing One Messuage or Tenement and three Closes of Meadow or Pasture Grounds To hold the same Messuage or Tenement Closes of Meadow or Pasture Ground and premises with the Appurtenances unto my said wife Elizabeth Vines and her Assigns for and during the Term of her natural life

And from and immediately after her decease I give devise and bequeath the same and every part thereof unto my Two Sons William Vines and Edward Vines and to their Executors and Administrators share and share alike for and during all the Term Interest and Estate I have therein "
