Biography

Ann, or Anna, was a daughter of Elizabeth (nee Stockton) and William Whiteside. It appears that she was born about 1755 near Whiteside's Branch of Mechum's River in Albemarle County, Virginia. She married Col. Richard Singleton who fought at Kings Mountain in the Revolutionary War. He died in the summer of 1807 in Lower Goose Creek, Clay County, Kentucky.

Some researchers show that Ann died about 1811 in Lower Goose Creek, Clay County, Kentucky, while others show that she was still alive and living in Perry County, Kentucky, on 17 Dec 1813. See deed record.
