text:
Elizabeth Kirkeby was a 15th-century English goldsmith and merchant. She was born in London to an artisan family and married John Kirkeby, a goldsmith who died in 1482. With his death, Elizabeth took over her late husband's business and managed it as her own. She manufactured and sold gold pieces, and subsequently expanded to open a mercantile shop and a shipping firm. She never remarried, which in the law of the time would have meant becoming a minor and giving up her business to her new spouse
