Elizabeth Thorowgood was born about 1633 to immigrants Captain Adam Thorowgood and Sarah Offley. Her father came to Virginia in 1621 and returned to London to marry in 1627. Adam Thorowgood served as a Burgess from Elizabeth City for several years and held many other high offices in Virginia. He is said to have been the one to name Norfolk, Virginia after Norfolk in England.

Elizabeth married John Michael of Northampton County around 1650 and had two daughters and three sons. John Michael was a merchant from Holland and later became a Justice in Northampton. Elizabeth died about 1670 and was buried at Kings Creek in Northampton County. John remarried twice after her death but stated in his will that he wanted to buried beside her at Kings Creek.
