Notes - NOTES: My initial thoughts to get clarified:-
(1) IF PARENTS ARE CORRECT - Marriage record for parents is 11 Aug 1812 in Randolph County, Illinois.
Elizabeths birthdate here is 26 May 1812 in Kentucky.
How does this happen??
Did her parents get married in Illinois in 1812 - then dash off to to Kentucky for a few years - before dashing back to be in the 1820 Illinois census ??????????????
IF Elizabeth is attached to the right parents then LOGIC tells me she was born in Illinois
(2) 1880 census shows Elizabeths mother was born Ireland
My current information is that her mother was born in North Carolina.
Her mothers one available 1850 census also shows mother born North Carolina.
Her GRANDMOTHER was possibly born in Ireland (Sarah Milligan) - but lets see where this goes!
(3) The Bio-Sketch does say that her maiden name was FLACK - so even if the parents links are wrong she still fits in the Flack database 'somewhere' (so not a waste a time here).
(4) One Ancestry tree also has husband Nathaniels mother as a FLACK (from Kentucky) - so this could get a bit confusing ..lol
