Flag of Northamptonshire (adopted 2014)
Ann (Peake) Waters was born in Thorpe Achurch, Northamptonshire, England.

Ann Peak was baptised on 24 January 1601/2 at St John the Baptist, Thorpe Achurch, Northamptonshire, England.[1]

Ann was the daughter of Boniface Peak[1] and her many siblings were all baptised at St John the Baptist, Thorpe Achurch, Northamptonshire:

  1. Guilbert Peak, baptised on 19 April 1596;[2]
  2. stillborn daughter Peak, buried at St John the Baptist Church, Thorpe Achurch on 19 February 1597/8.[3]
  3. Mabel Peak, baptised on 24 December 1598;[4]
  4. James Peak, baptised in August 1600;[5]
  5. Robert Peak, baptised on 5 November 1603;[6]
  6. William Peak, baptised on 1 September 1605;[7]
  7. Christofer Peak, baptised on 29 April 1607;[8]
  8. Philip Peak, baptised on 24 February 1608/9;[9]
  9. Bridget Peak, baptised on 28 October 1610;[10]
  10. Oliver, baptised on 18 October 1612.[11]

Ann's father, Boniface Peak, was buried at St John the Baptist, Thorpe Achurch, on 26 June 1620.[12]

Anne Peake married Samuel Waters.

Anne had a son, John Waters, who migrated to Virginia, a son Samuel who married a Margaret, a son Thomas, a daughter Elizabeth Overton, who migrated to Virginia with her husband, William, and a daughter, Mrs William Goodwin.[13] Anne also had a sister, married to Caleb Millett.[13]

In the Will of Sir Robert Peake, Knight, a goldsmith of London, dated 15 May 1666, with codicil made 27 September, 1666, proved 26 July, 1667, Sir Robert bequeathed twenty pounds to his cousin --- Waters, relict of Samuel Waters, skinner, deceased. He also left three hundred pounds to his cousin and sometime servant, George Lyddall, gentleman, in Virginia, and to his cousin, James Waters, the son of Joseph Waters, he left fifty pounds. To John Peake, Esq., eldest son of Sir William Peake, Knight, of London, Alderman, and his brother Benjamin, second son of Sir William, &c.[14] It can be deduced from his will that either Sir Robert was a widower and all his children had predeceased him, or were alienated from him, or he was never married as he did not mention a wife or any children in his will, although he gifted many god-children and he left one thousand pounds (one hundred pounds a year for ten years) to his good friend and valentine, Mary St. Loe of the Parish of Dunstans in the East, London, widow.[14]

Anne Waters of St. Sepulchres, London, widow, left a Will dated 29 September, proved 4 July 1700.[13]

"Anne Waters of St. Sepulchres, London, widow. Will 29 September, 1697; proved 4 July 1700. Son John, who for divers years past hath been gone to Virginia, 5s and no more. Son Samuel Waters, and Margaret his wife, 10s apiece. Daughter Elizabeth Overton, now in Virginia, 10s, and William her husband, 10s. Son-in-law Mr. William Goodwin, 10s. for a ring. Brother-in-law Caleb Millett, 10s. Son Thomas Waters, residuary legatee, and he the sole Executor.

Noel, 108."

"The Will of Ann Waters, dated 7 Sep. 1697, of St. Sepulchre, London, England, specifically calls her daughter Elizabeth Overton 'now in Virginia'. Also named as being in Virginia is her brother, John Waters. A deed is recorded in the Virginia land books for 4,600 acres of land on the south side of Pamunky River on Falling Creek, 23 April 1681, to William Overton, for transporting 92 persons to the colony, including Elizabeth Overton."[16]

UNKNOWN-55287 and Peake-42 appear to represent the same person because: Not sure if Peake is the correct LNAB, but these two profiles are meant to represent the same person.

update: just re-read text, 1620 was not the date of her father's will (which text says was 1612).

because of the "after 1620" (date of father's will?), db_errors says she died before she was married & before her daughter was born.

But. Is this the same woman? Baptized 1602 means she was 37 when she married and began having children, which is a bit old for the times. And with daughter Elizabeth born 1654, that would put her at 52, which is a bit old for now even.
