What is Anne's surname?

[horselydown86]

Sounds phonetically a little like Wroxeter

Great suggestion Roger - that feels right to me and just a stone's throw from Atcham.

Can't find a baptism for an Ann (variations) but there is a Key family in Wroxeter in the possible timescale.

However, she might not have been baptised there but have moved there at some time. 

There's an Ane Kerby, Shawbury 1650

PS -I  had a quick look through the Cs but nothing jumped out at me.

I read the name as Ant Kery. There seems no suggestion of a second 'n' in the forename and the third letter resembles other 't's in the text. I'm not sure what to make of that though.

Hello All,

It has just occurred to be the name may be KEY. I base this on what I had considered an unusual forename for one of Anne/s descendants Key PERKINS.

Its definitely Key as I have found a number of documents including a Trade Directory in which his name is stated as Key PERKINS.

In baptism records for John and Anne's children, her forename is definitely given as Ann/e.  So perhaps her name is Ann KEY from Wroxeter?

Thoughts?

I didn't follow them up but does look very promising. I should have remembered your Key name of the weekend
