Occasionally after a highly publicized crime the principle players may desire a fresh start far from their infamey. However with Lizzie Borden annonymity was not the purpose intended. Borden remained in Fall River MA where she had lived her entire life. Changing her name to LizBeth was meant to give her a more sofisticated sounding name as she planned to assume a social position she felt her frugal father Andrew denied her while he was alive. But she was never allowed to enjoy the hometown's esteem. After her aquittal for the murders of her father and stepmother Abbey she was shunned by Fall River society. Borden took some respite in Boston and New York on occasion but lived an isolated life until her death in 1927. She lays beside her father Andrew, natural mother Sarah, sister Emma who preceeded her to the grave by only days and marked her grave with a simple tombstone the reads LizBeth.
*Footnote:Her stepmother Abbey was buried in her family plot in a different town.
