Here's as close as anyone's gotten to finding the real Maria:

Beyond that, Adam Duritz has been quoted saying that Maria is not completely a real person, and that it's his girl alter-ego, basically. See the following site: http://anna-begins.com/info/?id=faq#q14 specifically question fourteen.

Elisabeth was a former girlfriend. I believe (from my interpretation of the lyrics to "I Wish I Was A Girl") that Elisabeth is a former girlfriend who believed that Adam was cheating on her while he was out on tour, and it lead to the dissolution of their relationship. (Which is why he wishes he were a girl, because she would believe him if he were one of her girl-friends.) I don't know other songs she is mentioned in very well though, like Goodnight Elisabeth. However, that annabegins.com site I mentioned earlier has a section called "THE MEANINGS" which might help...

I personally find Anna far more interesting... and whomever that girl in Carriage is...
