Elizabeth Brooke (nee Colepeper) was the maternal grandmother of Nathaniel Bacon, and therefore my 10th great grandmother. She was a famous religious writer.

Most of the Biographical Dictionaries and Encyclopedias are agreed that he was born on 2^nd January 1647 at Friston Hall in Suffolk to Thomas Bacon Esquire and Elizabeth (nee Brooke) Bacon, but I have not been able to find a baptism register entry for Nathaniel. The Suffolk parish registers are not online yet, although Ancestry is currently digitising and indexing them, so hopefully once that project is complete I will be able to confirm this.
