Profile states she was the daughter of Benjamin Prescott and Abigail Prescott (Oliver), and she was the wife of John Hale Sr and John Hale.

1) Elizabeth the daughter of Benjamin Prescott and Abigail Prescott (Oliver), married Abijah Willard of Lancaster, Mass.

p.56
Elizabeth Prescott b. October 1, 1723 dau of the Honorable Benjamin Prescott and his wife,
Abigail Oliver (dau of the Hon. Thomas Oliver of Cambridge, Mass) of Lancaster. She was
the sister of Colonel William Prescott of Bunker Hill fame.

Elizabeth Prescott m. Abijah Willard of Lancaster, Mass. He was the son of the Honorable
Samuel Willard, one of the first settlers of Lancaster.

2) Despite being married to a Willard, her profile has her married to two different men named John Hale.
First, is John Hale Sr who died 1793 before photography, yet there is a photo attached supposedly of him. This John is given as the son of Thomas Hale and Hannah LNU.
Second husband is given as John Hale son of Nicholas Haile and Frances Garrett, and that he died in Mercer KY

I'm unsure, but I think John Hale Sr (from Pennsylvania) (died in Va) had a son Joseph, who died in Mercer KY. I think John Hale son of Nicholas and Frances (from Maryland) had a son Joseph P. Hale who died in Va.

Lot of people with similar names.

Bottom line - the woman of this profile did not marry two different men, both named John Hale.
