Research Notes

Baptisms

There were two other baptisms for an Ann Hedges at Purton in the same period:

  • Ann Hedges, the daughter of Robert and Joanna was baptised on 21 Sep 1806 at Purton.[3]
  • Anne Hedges, the daughter of Jane Hedges, single woman of Purton, was baptised on 19 Mar 1820 at Purton.[4]

Burials

There is no evidence for the burial of one of the above 'Ann Hedges' at Purton up to 1900.

Marriages

[Possible Marriage] Ann Hedges of Dauntsey married Barnaby Kane of Dauntsey by Banns on 01 May 1832 at Dauntsey, Wiltshire.[5][6]

[Unlikely Marriage - see below] Ann Hedges of Purton married George Besant of Purton by Banns on 26 Nov 1836 at Purton, Wiltshire.[7]

Dauntsey Family

1841 Census, Dauntsey: Barnaby and Ann Kane.[8]

1851 Census, Dauntsey: Ann Kane was resident at Dauntsey, Wiltshire, age 45, place of birth Purton, Wiltshire.[9]

1871 Census, Dauntsey: Ann (surname transcribed as Thane) was resident at Dauntsey, Wiltshire, age 64, place of birth Purton, Wiltshire. Also present was her husband Barnaby 'Thane'.[10]

Children of Barnaby and Ann Kane

  • Elizabeth Kane (b abt 1832)
  • Harriet Kane (bap. 13 Apr 1834, Dauntsey)[11]
  • Keziah Kane (bap. 17 Mar 1833, Dauntsey)[12]
  • Sophia Kane (bap. 15 Sep 1836, Dauntsey)[13]
  • Sophia Kane (bap. 25 Jun 1837, Dauntsey)[14]
  • Sophia Kane (b 1839)[15] (bap. 30 Jun 1839, Dauntsey)[16]
  • George Kane (b 1841)[17] (bap. 14 Nov 1841, Dauntsey)[18]
  • John Kane (bap. 02 Jul 1843, Dauntsey[19]
  • Ann Kane (bap. 24 May 1846, Dauntsey)[20]
  • no name daughter (b 1850)[21]
  • Katherine Kane (bap. 01 Apr 1855, Dauntsey)[22]

While Ann (Hedges) Kane was born around 1806 at Purton, the list of children above gives no clue as to whether Ann (Hedges) Kane was the daughter of either Charles and Mary or the daughter of Robert and Joanna, or perhaps the daughter of neither.

Purton Family

1841 Census, Purton: Ann and George Besant and two children resident at Purton. Ann's age was rounded to 30.[23]

1851 Census, Purton: Ann Besant not present with the family of George Besant.[24]

1861 Census, Purton: Ann Bezant age 36, wife of George, was resident at Purton, place of birth Lyneham.[25]

1871 Census, Purton: Ann Beasant age 46, wife of George, was resident at Purton, place of birth Preston [i.e. the hamlet of Preston in the parish of Lyneham].[26]

Hence the Ann Hedges who married George Besant would appear to have been born around 1815 at Lyneham, Wiltshire, and was probably not one of the three Ann Hedges baptised at Purton. A Baptism for Ann Hedges around 1815 at Lyneham has not been identified.
