Born in 1757ish in North Carolina to Jemima Smith and Benjamin Merrell
Married Boyd McCrary before May 1777 in North Carolina
Anna-Nancy-Charles-Charles William-Fenly-Clifford
Died before 7 March 1828 in Howard County, Missouri
Anna is Benjamin Merrell's sister; her daughter Nancy and his son Eli married each other.
Ann's parents moved to North Carolina from Hopewell not long before she was born. Her father was executed by the British in 1771. She married Boyd McCrary whose parents had come to North Carolina from Pennsylvania. You can read more about Anna here.
After Boyd died around 1819, Anna moved to Missouri with some of her children. I haven't been able to learn anything about her life there, although I think it would be interesting, especially since she was nearly 70 at the time and Missouri a little rough then. She died in Howard County.
