Elizabeth Sears was of Hingham, Massachusetts. On 11 December 1746 she and Mial Bearse of Halifax were published at Halifax, the clerk writing "Mial Bearse of Hallifax and Elizabath Sears of Hingham were Lawfully Published." Lincoln's History of Hingham lists her among the town's Searses: "Elizabeth, m. Dec. 10, 1746, Ammiel Bearse."

Mial had been born at Plympton in 1719/20, a son of James Bearce Junior and Abia Ford, and so a grandson of both James Bearse of Plympton and Andrew Ford of Abington. By him she had Luce, born 1 November 1747, Mial, born 13 January 1748/9, Elizabath, who died on 11 October 1752, and Obediah, born 5 August 1750. Mial Bearce died on 23 March 1753.

She was published to Nehemiah Stetson the younger on 5 July 1754, as "Elizabath Bars widow," and married him on 30 July. Their daughter Sarah was born on 21 February 1755. Nehemiah died on 11 January 1756. Her parents are not known.
