Elisha was a resident of Barnstable in 1689, but moved back to Eastham and resided in "Little Skaket Neck" until 1703.

"After marriage Elisha and Rebecca settled first at Eastham, but were in Barnstable in 1689. They returned to Eastham and resided there until about 1703, when they removed to that part of Plainfield, now Canterbury, Conn. where he purchased a tract of five hundred acres of wild land. Here the took an active part in all public affairs. He was one of the founders of the church in that town in 1711."

Elisha and Rebecca's grandchildren, Aaron Cleveland and Thankful Paine married each other.
