Elizabeth Tuttle also known by her married name Elizabeth Tuttle Edwards (1645–1691 or after) was Puritan woman who lived in the New Haven Colony in what is now the state of Connecticut. She was brought up in a financially stable home and raised to be a Puritan "goodwife". Her dreams of running her own flouring household, like her mother, were ruined when she married Richard Edwards and was entangled in a sex scandal. The couple were married for 24 years and had six children. Rare for the time, Tuttle was divorced by her husband in 1691 for adultery.
