Anne Leigh

Probably born in Wiltshire, England. Thomas Hungerford and his sister Anne came to Connecticut about 1638. Thomas settled with his first wife in Hartford, a town on the Quonektacut River, named for the Indian word meaning long-river. He owned a triangular plot of land on the road to the cow pasture, now North Main Street. He moved to New London about 1650 with eleven others when John Winthrop was establishing the town. He acquired a substantial amount of property, and married Hannah Wiley.

Thomas Hungerford, of Hartford left his daughter Sarah (born about 1654, probably in Boston) in his sister Anne Leigh care after his first wife died. He later remarried and died in New London, Connecticut before 1 May 1663.

Anne (Hungerford) Lee died at Concord, Massachusetts- not Ipswich.

”I have a family history (Reference FHL# 0908084, item# 5) of the Hungerfords compiled by Gustave Anjou. He supports the theory that our Thomas was the son of John Hungerford, MP and Elizabeth Hungerford. He also did a family history on the Huntingtons--and was exposed as a fraud by a Huntington family organization. ..."
