Ann Durant

Not the same as Anna Andrews. The theory that the wife of Edward Durant was the daughter of Richard Hall, of Middletown & Mary Hall is unsupported by Donald Jacobus, who shows that Annah Hall as the wife of Samuel Andrews

Some sources say Anna, the daughter of Richard Hall of Middletown, was married to Edward Durant, while another states Samuel Andrews of Wallingford is the spouse. Which is correct? She is not mentioned by married name in her father's will in 1691, which seems odd, but then neither is Mary, but Sarah Hall Blake is recognized by her married name. Only one Anna in the family of Richard Hall of Middletown. Perhaps searching for another Anna Hall or pursuing burial records for Anna Andrews and Anna Durant might give a clue.
