- Born in Cairo to Richard Burton and Alice Gwendolyn (née Kerby, later Duck), she grew up in Windsor, Ontario. She later studied privately in Rome. In 1935 Burton married John Theodore Aitken at Windsor, Ontario. In the 1940s she wrote comic fantasy novels under the pseudonym Susan Alice Kerby. In Miss Carter and the Ifrit (1945), a Muslim spirit helped a spinster to find love during the Second World War. In Mr Kronion (1949), a Greek god defended English village life.
From 1945 to 1965, she was the London correspondent of a Canadian daily, the Windsor Star. Changing her surname by deed poll from Aitken to Burton in 1950, she published her historical writing as Elizabeth Burton.
