Facts and Events
[edit] Possible identity of Anne UnknownThe following records show that Anne was quite possibly the wife of 1) Capt. Thomas Youell (Yowell), 2) John Hull and 3) Richard Smith:
From "The Descendants of Richard Smith of Northumberland County, Virginia", by Darryl J. Diemer: Richard Smith born about 1627, probably in England, came to America about 1657, and settled in Northumberland County, Virginia. Nothing is known of the mother of Richard's son, William Smith, who was said to have been born in England. Richard married again, a recent widow named Anne Hull. Anne had young children by her first husband, John Hull, who seemed to have taken very good care of her. At the time of John's death she retained quite a number of her own possessions, which seems rather unusual for that time period, and she seemed to have had very nice clothing. Prior to the marriage between Richard Smith and Ann (?) Hull, he made a bond (a prenuptial agreement?) regarding her right to retain possession of her things (a listing follows). On September 1669, Richard Smith was granted one-third portion of John Hull's estate as a dower for Anne Hull. Richard Smith had these children and possible others: William, John, Thomas, and Richard. |
