Death and Legacy
Ann's death date is unknown.[1]
Research Notes
FindaGrave reports she was born on 9 Nov 1640 in Dorchester, England.[4] This is impossible, as her father immigrated in 1630 aboard the Mary & John. FindaGrave also reports Ann died on Dec. 1, 1669, in Hartford, Hartford County, Connecticut (without evidence, and without source.[4]

Her origins are unknown: Hannah (her actual name in the only original record concerning her) is not mentioned in the will of Henry Smith (d. 1682, UK), husband of Anna Pynchon Smith, nor in the will of Anna's father, the Hon. William Pynchon (d.1662, UK). Pynchon mentions all of his Smith grandchildren by name: there is no Hannah Allyn mentioned. Recommend disconnecting this person as a child of Henry Smith & Anna Pynchon.
