Individual Details

Anna WINSLOW

(1743 - 28 Oct 1814)

Benjamin and Anna Maxwell lived in Bedford until about 1775, when they
moved to Franklin Co., MA, to the part of Charlemont that was later set off
as Heath, MA. He served in the French & Indian War in Major Roger's
Rangers, and was commissioned a Lieutenant in the Revolutionary War.

According to the vital records of Heath, MA, Anna Winslow was born in
Boston in 1743, an entry which was made in later handwriting, so it could
be misleading. Her birth was not recorded in the vital records in Boston,
and I can't place her in the family of any of the descendants of John and
Mary (Chilton) Winslow, of Boston yet, but I know of no other Winslows who
were living around Boston during the 1740s.

71 or in her 71st year.

Mary, Anna, Martha, Benjamin, Olive, William, Sylvanus, Winslow, Alexander
Park, and Frazier Maxwell.
