County of New Kent. She departed
this Life ye 4: day of March Anno Domini 1716
In the 70th year of her Age.
She left three Sons & two Daughters
by Her said Husband, viz:
Robert, William, Walter, Ann and Elizabeth



Robert and Frances Booth were the parents of Ann:
Frances Booth gave the year of her birth as 1609, in a deposition in 1668.

Robert Booth was a clerk of the York County Court, 1640-1657 and represented York Co in the House of Burgesses in 1653-54. He is often referred to as "physician" but at least one researcher believes this to be an error - he possibly attended the bedside of someone in his duties as clerk of the Court and was assumed to be a physician. No primary document has been found that refers to him as "Dr.".
Other children were likely William who married (1) Margaret Bray and (2) Mary Thompson; Humphrey who married Margaret Underwood; Thomas who married Elizabeth Meriwether; and another daughter, Eleanor.
