Biography

Ann Radford Poindexter was baptized 31 January 1761 by the Rev. William Douglas at Saint James Northam, Goochland County, VA.[1]
Ann is said to have hidden notes in her petticoats from her mother concerning the British troops and taken them across enemy lines. Her mother was recognized as a DAR Patriot. However, actual proof of these episodes has long since been lost and no one can join DAR on Elizabeth Pledge Poindexter without representing new proof.[2]
b. 18 DEC 1760, Goochland County, Virginia[3]
Baptism: 31 JAN 1761, Goochland County, Virginia[1]
d. 31 JUL 1835, North Carolina[4]
