Elizabeth Blossom FitzRandolph Pike was one of six children born to the marital union of English-born Thomas Blossom and the former Anne Elsdon (or Heilson). The three oldest children died while young and were buried in Leiden, Zuid-Holland, Netherlands before Elizabeth and her two younger brothers were born. The Blossom family emigrated to the Massachusetts Colony from Leiden via England in 1629, arriving on a newer ship bearing the venerable name of “Mayflower”. Elizabeth made her first marriage on the tenth day in May of 1637 in Scituate, Plymouth County, Colonial Massachusetts when she became the bride of Edward FitzRandolph II. Edward was a son of Edward FitzRandolph I and Frances Howes (or Howis), his wife, of Hucknall, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottingham, England. He was a direct descendant of the Lords of Middleham and Spennithorne, the Earls of Norfolk and Suffolk, and Sir Roger Bigod II, a Magna Carta Surety, 1215. On June 30, 1685, Elizabeth FitzRandolph, née Blossom, married a second time when she exchanged vows with Judge John Pike. Judge Pike, who served in the militia with the rank of captain, was a widower with six grown children. He was a prominent man in the town of Woodbridge, New Jersey, having been one of its founding citizens. He also served on the Governor’s Council. No children were born to this union. Judge Pike died three years into the marriage and was laid to rest next to his first wife. https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/45704257/elizabeth-fitzrandolph_pike
