Ann (…), whose ancestry is unknown (or not traced here), was born say 1625.1 She died before 1 April 1701, when her will was proved.2

Ann married Robert Davis, whose ancestry is unknown (or not traced here), before 1645.3,1

Ann left a will dated 5 May 1699, and proved 1 April 1701. In it, she named only the youngest children of Robert Davis. For this reason, Otis suggests she was a second wife of Robert, and that his first wife is unknown.

The children she named are son Joseph, Daughter Hannah Dexter, grandchild Sarah Dexter, son Josiah and his unnamed wife, Daughters Sarah Young and Mercy Young.2,4
