- Will: 25 Apr 1796; PCC Prob 11/1526 1811
Notes:
Youngest Daughter
Birth:
Was "21 years and upwards" in 1773 when marriage bond was taken
Not yet 21 years old and "youngest daughter" in her father's will written 18 June 1757
Age listed as 56 in her 1809 marriage to William TURNER
Christened:
Unable to find a will for Ann or her siblings, it's possible they were baptised in non-conformist chapels in the area as there is some indication that the family flirted with the non-conformist movement. The records for those chapels have not survived.
Hampshire Record Office copy of the baptism of Ann Knowlton gave the following, either it is the wrong Ann or the father's name was recorded incorrectly. At this point it can't be used given this problem.

The ship documents are confusing, the ship name is clearly listed as "Vancouver" on the outgoing documents, but it is packaged together with the "City of Chicago" documents. On it's arrival in Montreal it is again listed as the "Vancouver" however according to records the Vancouver was sold before it was finished being built by the Dominion line to the Inman line and renamed "City of Chicago" in the year 1883. On the arrival records it is listed as a Dominion ship. There was another ship in the Dominion line named Vancouver but the coincidence with the name "City of Chicago" being mentioned makes it unclear as to which ship this actually was.
