There is no proof of the name of this person; most well researched trees indicate that the wife of Thomas Hanks and mother of his children is "unknown."[1][2]
A thorough analysis done by Vicky Reany Paulson in her book "Abraham Lincoln's Hanks Family Genealogy, published in 2014"[3] concludes that Elizabeth Lee is NOT the wife of Thomas Hanks. She may have been "Elizabeth," but there is no Elizabeth Lee in Virginia that matches what the birth information would have to be based on the births of the children.
