I've found an entry for Elizabeth right birth year, but she's not on the linked image. Having another look, need to go for a few minutes, but back soon.

I see the same thing, I think they called her Barber because the family above are Barber's, another Ancestry Mistrans:(( Sorry I can't find them anywhere.
