https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Bennett-950 - "It is not known when Anne died. In Robert’s will he names “wife Joanna”, but it is not known if this is a second wife, or a mutation of Anne. Robert died in 1722 at the age of 72."

I'm prone to think Robert remarried after Anne died, but that all named children in the Robert's will came from Anne. This means an viable death estimate could be states to be after the last-born child's VERIFIABLE birth year.

Was Joanna Anne's formal name in some heretofore unknown birth record? Possibly — and if so, then Anne survived Robert.

Since there was a daughter named Anne, she may have gone by Joanna distinguishing herself different from her daughter.
