Ann was bequeathed 1 shilling in her father's Will (1747).
In her husband's 1802 Will Anne Lanyon was bequeathed his leasehold estates called Cossawsen and Wall in Gwinear parish.
------------------------------
Ann Lanyon of Gwinear died aged 88 years (burial record). Note that in the Royal Cornwall Gazette (Saturday, 24 Oct 1829) it incorrectly refers to Mrs. Lanyon, relict of the late Mr. John Lanyon..., the mistake possibly due to the report immediately preceding hers of the death in Gwinear of Mr. John Hambly.
