There has been some confusion about Samuel Everett’s wife’s maiden name. In his genealogical research, my grandfather, Paul Bedford Mitchell, explains the solution to the confusion as follows:
“In earlier research made on Ann and Samuel Everett, whom she married in late 1819, family info had referred to Ann’s surname as being Hogg. Believed correct - she was recorded as Ann Hogg. In overseas research on England carried out later, church records of their marriage showed her name as Ann Breed, in Samuel’s records of their marriage in Toddington, Bedfordshire, England. A search of the Breed family records, who lived in the village of Sundon, Bedfordshire, was made and these records confirmed that an Ann Breed, daughter of Mark Breed and Hannah Osborne, had married a Samuel Everett of Milton Bryan, Bedfordshire on 9th of December 1819, with the marriage performed in Toddington, Bedfordshire, England. These names, dates and places were identical to those appearing on Samuel Everett’s marriage record. At the time the Breed records were checked, a statistical sheet was erected from the material, showing the parents of Ann - and her only brother, her five sisters and herself. Included are their names, dates of christening, and marriage dates, with all spouse names included, and on which Samuel Everett‘s name appears below Ann. Of the 10 children that were born of Samuel and Ann’s marriage, 4 were daughters - who were all born in New Brunswick, after coming to Canada - whom she named Hanna Elizabeth, Sarah, Hester Ann, and Frances. When the names of Ann’s sisters are examined, it shows that Ann had named her four daughters with the same Christian names carried by her five sisters and herself which was further proof supporting Ann’s maiden name as Ann Breed, not Ann Hogg.”
Based on his research and historical documents I've seen on familysearch.org which support it, I conclude that
1) Ann Hogg (daughter of Thomas Hogg and Jane Gray, spouse of Thomas Craig, born in Northumberland, England and living there in 1881)
and
2) Ann Breed (daughter of Mark Breed and Hannah Osborn, born in Bedfordshire, England but living in Andover, Victoria, New Brunswick, Canada as of 1881)
were two separate women and that Samuel Everett was married to the latter.
The historical records for these two women have unfortunately been conflated into one person on the tree. This record should be detached from Ann Hogg so that it can be attached to Ann Breed.
