Elizabeth HILL
Set As Default Person -
Name Elizabeth HILL Relationship 
with Teresa Ann GOATHAM Born Abt 1426 - Vivian (p.486; from the Visitation of Devon 1530, add. MS. 14311, fo. 138) shows her 4 brothers as born one a year 1420-1423; I don't know if Elizabeth was older or younger so she could have been born a few years earlier.
Clearly not born 1426 if the mother of the children shown here - and if I have their dates of birth roughly right.
Gender Female Died Yes, date unknown

Family Otes GILBERT, b. Abt 1417, d. Between 1 Dec 1493 and 9 Jun 1494 (Age ~ 76 years)
Other Partners: Alice MULESMarried - * There is something wrong here *
Shown in Vivian (p.405) but I am a bit dubious about whether this Otes and Elizabeth were the parents of the family shown here (other than Isabell). I suspect a generation may have been missed, or another wife of Otes.
With Elizabeth generally a common name, and Otes much used in the Gilbert family there could easily have been two generations running of Otes and Elizabeth.
On the other hand, Otes could have been an older father, and had another, younger wife. The Hill pedigree (Vivian, added by him - not in the 1620 visitation) suggests that Elizabeth was unlikely to have been young enough to be the mother of the sons shown here - she would have had to have been significantly younger than her brothers. It is possible, though, perhaps there were other children who died young and are not shown in the Hill pedigree, or Robert Hill was widowed and remarried to a younger wife, who was the mother of Elizabeth.
Possibly most likely is that Otes Gilbert married another wife after the death of Elizabeth.
My theory of a missing generation may have extra weight from the existence of an Otho Gilbert of Compton dated 1439 (according to the Devon Will Project) - this Otes/Otho is missing from Vivian. Seeing this is a priority.
