Elizabeth Scrope was the daughter of Sir Richard Scrope (d.1485) and Eleanor Washbourne (d.1505/6). She married first, on April 24, 1486 at Westminster, William, 2nd viscount Beaumont (d.

In his will, Oxford left Elizabeth "all manner of apparel to her person," silk cloth, and "chains, rings, girdles, devices, beads, brooches, ouches and precious stones." In 1520, she attended the Field of Cloth of Gold. In 1531, she bought the wardship of her nephew, John Audley (her sister Katherine's son by Richard Audley of Swaffham, Norfolk).
