Biography

Ann was born about 1675. She passed away after 1742.

Strange Discrepancy between Dates of First Wife of Tobias Hanson Jr, Dates of Second Wife, and Children's baptismal records:

Tobias Hanson Jr is cited with having two wives - Lydia Canney and Ann Lord. There is no established death date for Lydia, but good documentation that the marriage to Ann Lord took place in 1698.

However, the baptismal records of Mercy Hanson (born 1699) and Tobias Hanson III (born 1702) and Judith Hanson (born 1703) all list their mother as Lydia Canney. However, these children are often credited as being the children of Ann Lord, presumably due to the wedding date of 1698.

It's all very confusing.
