Ann and her husband, William Partridge, were probably from Buckingham, England and married there in 1636. They soon left for America and settled in Salisbury, Massachusetts, just a mile or two from the southern border of New Hampshire.
They had at least seven children, one of whom married Ed Gove who is known for "Gove's Rebellion" in which some of our Wadleigh and Sleeper ancestors participated. A new governor had been appointed for New Hampshire who apparently a lot of people didn't approve of. In 1683, Gove instigated a small rebellion against the governor. The demonstrators were arrested for treason. Ed Gove was sent to the London Tower for three years. His wife, Hannah, sister of our grandma Elizabeth, wrote for his safe return saying he was beset with these outbursts.
William Partridge died when he was still a young man and Ann married Anthony Stanyon. They lived in Hampton, New Hampshire where Ann died in 1689.
