About Anne Bray


Most sources now tend to believe she was the daughter of John, and Lynhaven Parish planter Adam was her Uncle. There is also a christening date of 27 February 1613 in Sawbridgeworth, Hertfordshire, England for an Anne Thorowgood, daughter of John Thorowgood. [England Select Births & Christenings 1530-1975; Familysearch.org]

It is NOT proved that Anne was the daughter of William Thorowgood or sister of Adam. Thomas Keeling transported his wife, Ann, in 1634. They came to the colony on the "John & Dorothy"; Adam Thorowgood was Captain of the "John & Dorothy." Thomas and Anne named sons Adam and Thorowgood. Adam Thorowgood was the godfather of Adam Keeling; he named Adam Keeling his godson in his will and left him a breeding goat.

The Information I have is that Adam Thorowgood,was not Ann Keeling (Thorowgood ) Father but rather her brother. Their parent ofc were William & Anne Edwards.Cannot corrcect due to the fact my grandmothers profile is lockrd !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This Ann Keeling DID marry Thomas M Keeling & was not married just Twice!!!!!!!

"There is NO proof that Ann, wife of Thomas Keeling, is William's daughter; this relationship is purely speculative based on her naming sons Adam and Thorowgood Keeling. Naming one son for a prominent friend is one thing, naming two sons? Ann's descendants are shown here as theory in hopes that someone may find more conclusive information that would shed some light on her surname. It also provides a research aid as her descendants married those of Adam Thorowgood."
