There is an Ann Fortt buried St Swithins Bath 12 September 1847 (might be death date)

Ref: Find A Grave
----------------
GRO Index
Registered at Bath September quarter 1847 vol 11 page 34  Ann FORT age 80 

Dob circa 1767

So she could be the Ann you are looking for, her death certificate might help, who reported her death, where she was living etc.

Henry - 1826 - address given as Westgate Street, father's occupation is Auctioneer.  No indication of being accepted into church.  Parish record image available on Ancestry.

Eliza Jane - born 28 December 1828, baptised 26 March 1829.  Address and occupation as for Henry.

There is a burial for Harriett Fortt 25 January 1804 at St Michael's  no age given, but would fit

as John and Ann Fortt had another daughter named Harriett 1805.

Notes
Sarah Fortt-  child - buried 1804  14 April
Elizabeth Fortt buried 1804 16 April- child

Elizabeth could be John's daughter born 1801
