I know that you won't believe this, but I believe that there were two Elizabeth Tenneys who were both daughters of William Tenney.They both married a John Woodbury.
Here is the source information that I have:
ELIZABETH TENNEY born 9 Apr 1642 in Rowley, Essex, Massachusetts to William and Katherin was married about 1669 to JOHN WOODBURY the son of Humphery. She died 16 Apr 1689 in Beverly, Essex, Massachusetts.He died 22 Jan 1715/1716. He married Ales Blish 2 Jul 1690 as a second wife.
CHILDREN: Elizabeth, Mary, Ruth, Sarah, Samuel, Peter, Susannah, Rebecca
ELIZABETH TENNEY born about 1632 was married about 1653 to JOHN WOODBURY the son of John and Agnes Napper. He died on board the HMS CROWN in 1672.She remarried Capt. John Dodge about 1675 and died after him 6 Jan 1725/1726 in Beverly, Essex, Massachusetts.
CHILDREN:Elizabeth, John, Abigail, Ebenezer, Hannah, Mary

[NOTE - daughter DORCAS not this family - Vital records of Rowley, Essex, Massachusetts, page 236, WOODENG (Wooden), Dorcas, d. John, Feb. 10, 1671.].
This is a quick outline, but you can see the problem. Records can be difficult to find this early. The second, older Elizabeth is either a TENNEY or UNKNOWN surname. It was not unknown to name two children the same name and they both survive to have children of their own especially if there was a first wife of William Tenney which his age would suggest. The following does not show that information so it is not clear whether or not she fits into the family.
BROTHERS: It was mentioned several times in New England records.Here is one source:
"John Woodbury" Robert Charles Anderson, The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633, Great Migration Study Project, New England Historic Genealogical Society Boston 2000 (Ancestry.com CD).
The problem is that in those days brothers could mean "cousins". I haven't found the family in England quite yet. William lived and had children in South Petherton, Somerset, England and Misterton, Somerset, England.But there are no other Woodburys in South Petherton, but a marriage of Joan or Joanne to John Elliott in 1613 which means he came from elsewhere.

"109 DEACON WILLIAM TENNAY, brother of Thomas, had an acre and a half house-lot in the second division lying between the lots of Mark Prime on the north and Thomas Miller on the south, with the east end on teh street.He was ordained Deacon of our church 3 Feb., 1667-8. His wife was Katherine.He died 5 Aug., 1685 (see inventory). His will, dated 3 Aug., 1685, mentions : wife (unnamed) and four daughters, Elizabeth, Mary, and Ruth as married, Sarah as unmarried, also nephew Samuel Tenney to have L20 if he "stay with his aunt till he arrives at the age of 21 years"(Essex Probate).
10 May, 1698, widow Katherine Tenney, then of Bradford, sold to James Bailey and Samuel Prime the house-lot in Rowley, where her late husband formerly dwelt, of about one and a half acres bounded "on ye East end on ye Town Street, on ye North side on land of ye said Prime, on ye West on ye brooke that runs through ye town and on ye South on land of Mr. Woodman" (Essex Deeds 12 : 118). Widow Katherine died in Bradford, 13 Oct., 1700.
