Grandmother of Susanna (Rand) Ellingwood. She was born at Lynn on 30 Apr 1663, the second child of Thomas Ivory and Mary Davis, and entered in the town book under the Aramaic of Mark 5:41, "Talithacumy" ("Talitha cumi," "Damsel, arise").

Through her the Ellingwoods are kin to the Burrills of Lynn: her aunt Lois Ivory married Lt. John Burrill, and their son John Burrill (1657-1721), Speaker of the Massachusetts House, was her first cousin. Timothy Pickering, Secretary of State, descends from the same aunt.

King Philip's War. Her cousin John Burrill and her future husband Robert Rand served in the same company, Capt. Samuel Brocklebank's: Rand probably with the recruits who marched to the Narragansett army in January 1676, and Burrill credited in June (Soldiers in King Philip's War, pp. 207, 422).

She married Robert Rand Jr. on the last day of January 1683/4 and had eight children at Lynn between 1686 and 1700, among them Robert, the Boston joiner (record).

Research: Woodbury, Rand–Cheever–Ivory and Slater lines behind the Ellingwoods.
