Anne TABB

   Research Notes:

Anne, daughter of John Tabb and Anne. I initially assumed Anne's parents were John Tabb and Anne Sowden who were married in Camborne in 1762 and had Anne (b. 1762), Stephen (b. 1767) and Elizabeth (b. 1769). It seems unlikely that they would have waited another 20 years before having this Anne and another daughter Jenefer (b. 1793), especially since John died in 1791. There is no marriage listed for another John and Anne; however, since John's wife Anne was born c. 1754 (aged 63 years in 1817), it is reasonable to assume that her husband John was the same as John Tabb born in 1750 and a younger cousin to John who married Anne Sowden.
